The molecular weight of a substance is determined from the following experimental data. Weight: 0.145g±0.002g Number of moles: 0.00266 mol±0.00004 g Molecular weight: 64.15929 g/mol±?/mol The molecular weight is calculated by dividing the weight in grams by the number of moles. Determine the ± absolute error in the molecular weight.
