To solve the problem of reporting the uncertainty in measurement as a percentage based on the given weights of a compound, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understand the given uncertainty**: The uncertainty in measurement is given as ±1 mg. 2. **Convert mg to grams**: Since we need to report the results in grams, we convert the uncertainty: - 1 mg = 1 × 10^(-3) g = 0.001 g. ...
