Measuring, Gathering and Writing Quantitative Data: Chemistry For Engineers - Laboratory Activity 2

The document summarizes a chemistry lab activity where students measured: 1) The precision of common lab equipment like graduated cylinders and thermometers. 2) The volume of water using different apparatus, finding a 5mL difference. 3) The density of water by measuring its mass in a 10mL volume, finding a density of 0.9892g/mL. 4) The volume delivered by a dropper at different volumes against a calibration, allowing them to determine a marked test tube delivered 6.00mL.
