5 9. A typical fl oz. can of Pepsi contains 38.0 mg of caffeine. How many micrograms of caffeine are contained in a 12 m 3 sample of Pepsi? 10. In an experiment, I determined the mass of sulfur in a sample to be g. If the volume of the sample was ml what is the density I calculated for the sample of sulfur? If the true density of sulfur is g/ml, determine the absolute error (a.e.) and the percent relative error (% r.e.) of my experimentally determined density. You must show all your work and use a in any intermediate values. For all of the calculations, show unrounded and rounded answers, with a box around your rounded values. (7 points) Density a.e. = A-X % r.e. = a.e. 100% A A = True Value X = My Value a.e. % r.e.

6 1 m = yards 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters (exact) 12 inches = 1 foot (exact) 1 gallon = liters 1 mile = kilometers 1 pound = grams 1 ton = 2000 pounds (exact) 1 fl oz. = ml 4 quarters = 1 dollar (exact) 10 dimes = 1 dollar (exact) 1 Gm = 1x10 9 m (exact)
