Describe the abstract idea of a sampling distribution and how it reflects the sample to sample variability of a sample statistic or point estimate. Identify the ...

When particles in a sample are the same size, one particle can be measured to report the result. If the sample has a narrow distribution, such as 10-25 µm, then measurement of just a few particles can ...
