UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO – COLORADO SPRINGS Absolute Zero Name: Abigail Salberg PES 2150 Prelab Questions 1.) Use the following experimental data and find a value for Absolute Zero. Absolute Zero = -274 Units 2.) Both graphs above are displaying the same data. However, one of the graphs was easier to use in this situation. Explain which graph was more useful and why. The top was more useful because all we had to do was plug in zero for x and solve for y. With the other equation, we would’ve had to plug in zero for y and then solve for x, which is just slightly harder. 3.) Find the % error between your experimental value determined above and the accepted value for absolute zero (expressed in degrees Celsius). % error = 0.31%
