The thermometer used by Student A was indicating temperatures that were 5 °C higher

than the thermometer used by Student B when measuring the same solutions. Would

this affect the E, values obtained by the two students? Explain.

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, this difference of readings will definitely affect the results of the experiment as well as the E values because the readings taken by both students are different from one another. There is a fault in one of the thermometer because both shows different readings of temperature of the same solution. This will affect the overall experiment and due to this error, we are unable to tell that which one reading is correct so the answer is uncertain or unsure.
