Down
- 1. the compound being measured in a sample
- 3. something that should be done to all instruments and glassware before using them to make measurements; this typically depends on the ambient temperature for glassware
- 4. a manufacturer’s indication of the degree to which an instrument or glassware is able to be precise to
- 5. a statistical test used to determine whether or not two standard deviations are statistically similar
- 7. an instrument used to quickly measure masses with less precision
- 8. an instrument used in titrations due to its ability to dispense a known volume
- 9. a measure of how close the values in a data set are to other values in the data set
- 10. everything in a sample except for what is being measured
- 11. samples or mixtures with an uneven, or non-uniform distribution
- 13. a type of uncertainty typically caused by the electrical components of an instrument
- 16. the average value of a data set
- 21. a type of calibration used when there is an expectation of a significant matrix effect
