LECTURE OUTLINE The Scientific Method Measurements & Unit Conversions Significant Figures Classification of Matter

SOME TERMINOLOGY Observation – Use of the senses, or extensions thereof, to acquire information about natural phenomena Hypothesis – A tentative explanation of natural phenomena Experiment – An observation of natural phenomena carried out in a controlled manner

About Experiments “Good” data is reproducible Rational conclusions can be drawn from reproducible data

SOME TERMINOLOGY Theory – A tested explanation of natural phenomena. Law – A concise statement or mathematical equation about natural phenomena. A summary of patterns seen in large collections of data. Usually has broad applicability.

SOME TERMINOLOGY Scientific Method – The general process of acquiring, testing, and refining information about natural phenomena.
