The main sources of error in charge density studies based on high-resolution X-ray diffraction data are of an experimental nature when special care is taken to minimise them, charge density studies can achieve an accuracy better than 1% in the values of the structure factor amplitudes of the simplest structures [1, 2]. The errors for small molecular crystals, although more difficult to assess, are reckoned to be of the same order of magnitude. 

The data from Table 2 show that the algorithm developed in allows sizing of different cracks with complex cross-sections and unknown shapes for orientation angles not exceeding 45°. It is seen that the width 2a and the parameter c (or the surface density of charge m=4 r // e at the crack walls) are determined with 100% accuracy for all of the Case Symbols studied. The errors in the computation of the depths dj and di are less than 4% while the errors in the computation of d, dj, d, and d are less than 20% independent of the shape of the investigated crack and its orientation angle O <45°. 

This situation, despite the fact that reliability is increasing, is very undesirable. A considerable effort will be needed to revise the shape of the potential functions such that transferability is greatly enhanced and the number of atom types can be reduced. After all, there is only one type of carbon it has mass 12 and charge 6 and that is all that matters. What is obviously most needed is to incorporate essential many-body interactions in a proper way. In all present non-polarisable force fields many-body interactions are incorporated in an average way into pair-additive terms. In general, errors in one term are compensated by parameter adjustments in other terms, and the resulting force field is only valid for a limited range of environments. 

The relative measurement error in concentration, therefore, is determined by the magnitude of the error in measuring the cell s potential and by the charge of the analyte. Representative values are shown in Table 11.7 for ions with charges of+1 and +2, at a temperature of 25 °C. Accuracies of 1-5% for monovalent ions and 2-10% for divalent ions are typical. Although equation 11.22 was developed for membrane electrodes, it also applies to metallic electrodes of the first and second kind when z is replaced by n. 

Flow cytometer cell counts are much more precise and more accurate than hemocytometer counts. Hemocytometer cell counts are subject both to distributional (13) and sampling (14—16) errors. The distribution of cells across the surface of a hemocytometer is sensitive to the technique used to charge the hemocytometer, and nonuniform cell distribution causes counting errors. In contrast, flow cytometer counts are free of distributional errors. Statistically, count precision improves as the square root of the number of cells counted increases. Flow cytometer counts usually involve 100 times as many cells per sample as hemocytometer counts. Therefore, flow cytometry sampling imprecision is one-tenth that of hemocytometry. 

As for the dielectric constant, when explicit solvent molecules are included in the calculations, a value of 1, as in vacuum, should be used because the solvent molecules themselves will perform the charge screening. The omission of explicit solvent molecules can be partially accounted for by the use of an / -dependent dielectric, where the dielectric constant increases as the distance between the atoms, increases (e.g., at a separation of 1 A the dielectric constant equals 1 at a 3 A separation the dielectric equals 3 and so on). Alternatives include sigmoidal dielectrics [80] however, their use has not been widespread. In any case, it is important that the dielectric constant used for a computation correspond to that for which the force field being used was designed use of alternative dielectric constants will lead to improper weighting of the different electrostatic interactions, which may lead to significant errors in the computations. 

From a human factors perspective, the chemistry of the process can be made inherently safer by selecting materials that can better tolerate human error in handling, mixing, and charging. If a concentrated reagent is used in a titration, precision in reading the burette is important. If a dilute reagent is used, less precision is needed. 

A linear regression was performed on the data, giving a slope of 1.08, an intercept of 1.922, and = 0.94. The fit of the data to the linear relationship is surprisingly good when one considers the wide variety of ionic liquids and the unloiown errors in the literature data. This linear behavior in the Walden Plot clearly indicates that the number of mobile charge carriers in an ionic liquid and its viscosity are strongly coupled. 

Core electrons are highly relativistic and DFT methods may show systematic errors in calculating the charge density at the nucleus because of the inherent approximations. Fortunately, this does not hamper practical calculations of isomer shifts of unknown compounds, because only differences of li//(o)P are involved. In practice, the reliability of the results depends more on the number of compounds used for calibration and how wide the spread of their isomer shift values was. The isomer shift scale for several Mossbauer isotopes has been calibrated by this approach, among which are Au [1], Sn [4], and Fe [5-9]. For details on practical calculation of Mossbauer isomer shifts, see Chap. 5. 

Electrophoresis involves the movement of a charged particle through a liquid under the influence of an applied potential difference. A sample is placed in an electrophoresis cell, usually a horizontal tube of circular cross section, fitted with two electrodes. When a known potential is applied across the electrodes, the particles migrate to the oppositely charged electrode. The direct current voltage applied needs to be adjusted to obtain a particle velocity that is neither too fast nor too slow to allow for errors in measurement and Brownian motion, respectively. It is also important that the measurement is taken reasonably quickly in order to avoid sedimentation in the cell. Prior to each measurement, the apparatus should be calibrated with particles of known zeta potential, such as rabbit erythrocytes.
