3.2 International System of Units (SI) Units unite!
SI Base Units Length = Meter (m) Mass = Kilogram (kg) Temperature = Kelvin (K) Time = Second (s) Amount = Mole (mol) Volume = Liter (L)
Volume Measured using graduated cylinders, pipets, burets, volumetric flasks, and syringes BASE = LITERS (L)
Temperature Travels from hot to cold K = ˚C+273 ˚C = K-273 Absolute Zero
Energy Units - Joule (J), calorie (cal) “calorie” is the quantity of heat that raises the temperature of 1 g of pure water by 1˚C. 1 J = 0.2390 cal 1 cal = 4.184 J
