Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), a semicrystalline polymer that is fully biodegrad

Question

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), a semicrystalline polymer that is fully biodegradable and biocompatible, is obtained from renewable resources. From a sustainability perspective, PHB offers many attractive properties though it is more expensive to produce than standard plastics. The accompanying data on melting point (degree c) for each of 12 specimens of the polymer using a differential scanning calorimeter appeared in an article. 180.4 181.7 180.8 181.7 182.7 181.5 181.4 182.2 182.1 180.2 181.6 180.5 Compute the following. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) (a) the sample range degree C (b) the sample variance s^2 from the definition s^2 = (c) the sample standard deviation s = (d) s^2 using the shortcut method s^2 =

Explanation / Answer

for abvoe as we know that variance will remain same through direct as well through short cut method.

therefore s2 =0.6055
