QuestionAnswer
Accuracy the extent to which a given measurement agrees with the standard value for that measurement
Precision exactness; to arrive at an estimate with precision you can be precise but not accurate
Meniscus the convex or concave upper surface of a column of liquid, the curvature of which is caused by surface tension eye level
Volume by displacement for objects that are irregular shaped, using a graduated cylinder. Fill the cylinder up with water or so that it will at least cover the object. Take an initial reading, add the objects and take a final volume reading

Crucible a refractory container used for metal, glass and pigment production
Precipitate a solid that forms out of solution. to separate (a substance) in solid form a solution, as by means of a reagent
Alum a crystalline solid, aluminum potassium sulfate, used in medicine as an astringency and styptic, in dying and tanning and in many technical processes
Filtration a method for separating the components of a mixture containing a solid and a liquid
Filtrate to filter; liquid that has been passed through a filter

Indicator a chemical that changes color and is used to mark the end point of a titration
Endpoint of a Titration the point of the titration at which the indicator changes color
Neutralization Reaction an acid base reaction
Primary Standard are made from compounds that have a relatively high molar mass and are readily available at relatively low cost and high purity
Secondary Standard lack at least one of the criteria to make them primary standards
