Explanation / Answer

Given-

Initial volume of 49.61 ± 0.04 ml

Burette was refilled, and an additional 1.42 ± 0.04 ml

The titration of a blank solution without the analyte required 0.58 ± 0.04 ml

To do this, set up the equation as follows [49.61(± 0.04) + 1.42( ± 0.04)] - 0.58( ±0.04)

  49.61 + 1.42 = 51.03 -0.58 = 50.45 ml (4 sig figs)

Finally: Square root of (0.04)^2 +(0.04)^2 + (0.04)^2 = 0.069 ml (two sig fig)

50.45 ml (4 sig figs) ± 0.069 ml (two sig fig)
