8. A solution that contains water boils at 105oC, due to the presence of either sugar or salt in the solution. How would you determine which one—sugar or salt—is present in the solution?
chromatography
distillation
filtration
tasting the solution

14. A student measured the concentration of a solution three times, obtaining values of M, M, and M. The average concentration was thus M. The accepted value was M. The student’s data has:
good accuracy and good precision.
poor accuracy but good precision.
poor accuracy and poor precision.
good accuracy but poor precision.
