Suppose a student completes an experiment with an average value of 2.9 mL and a calculated standard deviation of 0.71 mL. What is the minimum value within a 1 SD range of the average

The correct answer is 2.2 mL.

Explanation:

Given:

Average: 2.9 mL

SD: 0.71 mL

We can define a 1 SD range in which the value of volume (in mL) will be comprised:

Volume (mL) = Average ± SD = (2.9 ± 0.7) mL

Maximum value= Average + SD= 2.9 + 0.7 mL = 3.6 mL

Minimum value= Average - SD = 2.9 - 0.7 mL = 2.2 mL

Thus, the minimum value within a 1 SD range of the average is 2.2 mL

it should have an internal chamber and two thermometers sticking out of the top. the internal chamber will also be closed off from the outside.
