Question:

Experimental Results
Using an Analytical Balance to Prepare 100.0 mL of a 5.0 mmol/L Glucose Stock Solution
Enter the exact mass of glucose (to 3 decimal places) that you weighed during Practical 2 to prepare the 5.0 mmol/L glucose stock solution into Table 1.
Table 1:  Exact mass of glucose weighed to prepare the 5.0 mmol/L glucose stock solution.
Exact mass of glucose  = 0.090  grams (to 3 decimal places)
Using the mass (grams) of glucose that you provided in Table 1, calculate the concentration of glucose in the stock solution as mmol/L.  You must show your full working in the space below to gain full marks for this question.
Calibration of an Automatic Pipetter
Enter your experimental data for the calibration of two different automatic pipetters into Table 2.  The first was calibrated at 1.000 mL (1000 mL) and the second at 0.200 mL (200 mL).
Also provide in Table 2 the relative error (%) and relative precision (%) for the calibration of the two automatic pipetters.  The full working of the relative error (accuracy) and relative precision for both volumes delivered and reported in Table 2 must be shown on the next page in the spaces provided.
