During an experiment, a strip of magnesium (mg) was measured for its length. the scientists completed four trials of measurements. the first scientist measured trials 1 and 2 with a ruler that measures with mm markings. the second scientist measured trials 3 and 4 with a ruler that measures with inches. markings and then converted the data into mm. which options most accurately explain why the scientists’ data were imprecise? (select all that apply) - according to the scenario, the scientists used a piece of lab equipment that is not precise enough to measure the strip of magnesium. - when doing calculations like converting units, the number of significant figures is altered. this can change the level of uncertainty among the trial measurements. - during the recording of data, the first scientist could have converted the trial results incorrectly and caused the data to appear imprecise. - during a lab experiment, having different team members collect trial results could alter the precision of the data based on different individuals’ improper or biased reading of the equipment.

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)
