Calculating molar volume from experimental data often means the additional challenge of complex numbers and slight errors in measurement. The 23rd video in a 30-part series offers two types of experimental data to work from and models how the method is similar in each. To ensure individuals understand the concept, the video includes practice problems that provide answers as well as important reminders.
