Ans. mean mass = 201.3 g
std. deviation = 1.3
significant figure in mean mass = 4
most probable mass may either (201.3 + 1.3) or (201.3 - 1.3) = 202.6 g or 200.0g

Problems 16&17. Mass spectral measurements were made on 10 replicate low concentration Pb-EDTA samples: 172.3, 132.7, 142.7, 157.7, 126.7, 196.1, 147.7, 152.3, 141.7, and 159.3 counts. The mean and standard deviation of these counts from low concentrations is 153 $15. Ten measurements of a blank had a mean measurement of 100. counts. A sample containing 3.00 UM Pb-EDTA gave a measurement of 770 counts. Estimate the concentration detection limits for Pb-EDTA. 16. What is the...

1. Suppose you have a sample of size 100 with mean 5 and standard deviation 2. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. 2. For a random sample of 50 measurements on the breaking strength of cotton threads, the mean breaking strength was found to be 210 grams and the standard deviation 18 grams. Calculate a 90% confidence interval for the true mean breaking strength of cotton threads of this type.
