Mastery of Significant Figures, Scientific Notation and Calculations Goal: Students will demonstrate success in identifying the number of significant figures within a number, converting decimal form to scientific notation and calculating and rounding an answer properly Chemistry

SIGNIFICANT FIGURES All non-zero digits are significant. 825 has three sig. fig. Zeros located between non-zero digits are significant has four sig. fig. When a decimal or mixed decimal ends in zero, the zero is significant has five sig. fig. When a whole number ends in zero (with no decimal point), the zero is not significant. 400 has one sig. fig. When a whole number ends in zero (with a decimal point), the zero is significant 450. has three sig. fig.

Addition Subtraction Rules for Sig. Figs. Adding and Subtracting: Add or Subtract using your calculator, and round the answer to the least accurate decimal place = => 17.9 the tenths place in 0.1 is the least accurate decimal place.

Multiplication and Division with Sig. Figs. Round off to the least number of significant figures in any individual factor. i.e. (25.1) (3.9) (0.0016) = => The answer must be rounded to 2 sig. figs.
