A	error
B	accuracy
C	precision
D	dimensional analysis

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Dimensional analysis. A systematic approach to problem solving that uses conversion factors to move or convert from one unit to another.

Detailed explanation-2: -Dimensional analysis is a systematic approach to problem solving that uses conversion factors to move, or convert, from one unit to another.

Detailed explanation-3: -Dimensional analysis uses conversion factors to change the unit in an amount into an equivalent quantity expressed with a different unit. For example, a conversion factor could be used to convert 3.55 meters to centimeters.

Detailed explanation-4: -Conversion Factors and Dimensional Analysis. A ratio of two equivalent quantities expressed with different measurement units can be used as a unit conversion factor. For example, the lengths of 2.54 cm and 1 in.

Detailed explanation-5: -Dimensional analysis is a critical problem solving technique utilized throughout chemistry. It is a mathematical approach that allows one to convert from one unit to another unit using conversion factors.
