Tuesday, Sept.8, 2015 Journal:Read the scenarios and determine whether qualitative or quantitative data would be more appropriate.

Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2015 Read the scenario and answer the questions that follow. Justify your response by identifying variables and using prior knowledge.

What would YOU use?

Thursday, Sept. 10, 2015 Read and answer each question below. 1.A measurement that closely agrees with accepted values is said to be _____. a. accurate b. precise c. reliable d. significant 2.A 3 groups of students measures the mass of a product from the same chemical reaction. The groups recorded data of 8.83 g, 8.84 g and 8.82 g. The known mass of the product from that reaction is 8.60g. The group values are _____. a. accurate b. precise c. accurate & precise d. neither accurate nor precise 3.The accuracy of a measurement a. is how close it is to the true value. b. does not depend on the instrument being used to measure the object. c. indicates that the measurement is also precise. d. is something that scientists rarely achieve.
