In every experiment there is some determinant error, and there is sometimes indeterminate errors. The most likely error in the lab would be human error and instrument error. During the pipette trails, the water might have not have been on the line , where pipette is calibrated for, causing inaccuracy and error. An inherent source of error could be by evaporation of the water or cohesion/adhesion causing the water to not come fully out of the pipette or burette . In an ideal situation, the pipette should be around the same error as a burette because the instrument is accurate when done correctly. The burette trails was more successful in having precise and accurate data. A way to see whether the pipette is more precise and accurate than a burette would be to get a giant sample size, like class data, and average out the results. Overall, based on the data, the burette was more precise and more accurate than the
