2. Discuss to what extent random and systematic errors affect the values of  and  determined, and give possible sources of error in this experiment. How could the experimental accuracy be improved? 
3. Is the slope of the plot used to determine  a straight line? What is the slope? 
4. Why is a sparingly soluble salt more soluble in the presence of some inert electrolyte than it is in water? Use a description of the ionic atmosphere around an ion to illustrate your answer.
