Answer:

OK

Step-by-step explanation:

Accuracy = The fact of being exact or correct, when talking about numbers wemust always consider a variation or more or less than the stablished value. Based on that calculating quantities or volumes of liquids gives us this variation as a permited possibility, also the difference is so minimal that IT MUST BE CONSIDERED AS ACCURATE AND ACCEPTED.

Yes, her measurement is accurate.

Accuracy of a measurement is the closeness of a measured value to the actual or standard value. From the question, the first volume she measured; 80.0 ml is closer to the actual volume of water; 80.1ml. In this case, her measurement is accurate.
