Amy put some salt in a weighing dish. Then she put the weighing dish on a sensitive balance to measure the mass of the salt. She removed the weighing dish from the balance and put it in several similar balances. She recorded the mass each time. Mass 1 Mass 2 Mass 3 Mass 4 Masse 5 5.608 g 5.607 g 5.608 g 5.608 g 5.609 g Amy forgot to subtract the mass of the empty weighing dish from her measurements, and she reported the mass of the salt as 5.608 grams. Amy's measurement of the salt's mass accurate because . Amy's measurement of the salt's mass precise because .

Explanation:

i. Accuracy in measurement is a term that is used to describe the closeness of a measured value to its actual value. It relates the actual value to the measured values.

Therefore in the given question, Amy's measurement of the salt's mass is accurate because her final value is close to all the measured values.

ii. Precision in measurement is a term that is used to describe the closeness of different measured values to each other. It relates the keenness in the measured values.

Thus, Amy's measurements of the salt's mass is precise because the values of the masses are close to one another.

increase masses, decrease separation

dang that balls went far
