Answer:
2.44 %
Explanation:
Given that,
The calculated value of specific heat of water to be 4.29 J/g°C
The actual value of the specific heat of water is 4.18J/g°C
We need to find the percentage error of the student
[tex]\text{Percentage error}=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-calculated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100\\\\\%=\dfrac{4.18-4.29}{4.49}\times 100\\\\\%=2.44[/tex]
Hence, the student's percent error is 2.44 %.
