Question

1. your experimental energy released per gram of a pistachio is: 5.43 \\(\frac{cal}{g}\\) (experimental). the nutritional label said the energy released per gram of a pistachio is: 5.71 \\(\frac{cal}{g}\\) (theoretical). calculate the percent error using the following equation: percent error = \\(\frac{|theoretical - experimental|}{theoretical}\times100\\) %. the answer to this question depends on your answers to previous questions. 0 / ∞ submissions used score: 0/1

Explanation:

Step1: Identify values

Theoretical = 5.71, Experimental = 5.43

Step2: Calculate difference

Theoretical - Experimental

=

5.71 - 5.43

= 0.28

Step3: Calculate percent error

Percent Error=$\frac{0.28}{5.71}\times100\approx4.90\%$

Answer:

4.90%
