Item 4: Question h statement is correct about a determinate error in an analysis? The determinate errors of a series of measurements of the same value have an equal probability of being positive or negative. The presence of a determinate error may cause the answer to vary regularly with sample size. The magnitude of a determinate error can be estimated from the precision of the analysis. A determinate error can always be detected and eliminated by performing a blank analysis.
