Thanks for your reply. I was hoping it would be something straight-forward. It's not hugely important, so I won't put much more effort into now.

This isn't a set problem itself, rather it is just a small part of my chemisty coursework. I have two values with known errors a) -0.000379272 ± 1.75895E-05 b) -0.000576206 ± 4.13448E-05 What happens to the errors when i average the two values?

In the UK? Manchester

Have you considered applying for a course in the UK which includes a year abroad? I'm currently in the 2nd year of my course and my 3rd will be in the US. As well as being much easier to apply for, this has the advantage of only paying UK tutition fees.

Thanks. I guess that is what was meant by neutral, I can't be certain as I gave you the exact wording of the question so that's all there is to go on.

Here is the question I have, any help would be greatly appreciated. Which of the following organic solvents could be used to extract a neutral organic compound from an aqueous solution? ethyl acetate; ethanol; dichloromethane; hexane; acetic acid.
