Mass, Measurement, Materials, and More Mathematical Modeling: The Nuts and Bolts of Let’s Make an Error
How can you get students into analyzing and understanding errors? A second semester general chemistry experiment is presented that introduces students to error analysis via simple mass determinations using nuts, bolts, and washers. Students work in groups of four, each group having a triple beam pan...
