HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video A3: Percent, Decimals, Fractions, and Estimating
21
By the end of this video you should be able to… Calculate simple decimal, percent, and fraction examples relating to chemistry calculations. Objectives
22
Decimals To solve decimal calculations without a calculator: Ignore the decimal and multiply normally first Count the TOTAL number of decimal places in the numbers and ADD them back to my first answer 0.3 x 4 = 3 x 4 = 12 = 1.2 ignore decimal solve replace one decimal 0.2 x 35 = 2 x 35 = 70 = 7 ignore decimal solve replace one decimal 0.25 x 0.004 = 25x 4 = 100 = 0.00100 ignore decimal solve replace 5 total decimals
23
Decimals This also works with division but you add places BEFORE the decimal based on the two number’s decimal DIFFERENCE: 24 / 0.4 = 24 / 4 = 6 = 60 ignore decimal solve replace one extra place before decimal 120 / 0.03 = 120 / 3 = 40 = 4000 ignore decimal solve replace two extra places before decimal 0.3 / 0.003 = 3/3 = 1 = 100 ignore decimal solve replace 2 extra places before decimal
24
Percent 10% means move the decimal one places smaller. 10% of 356 is 35.6 10% of 400 is 40 20% can be solved by multiplying by 0.2 or by taking 10% twice. 20% of 500 =.2 x 500 = 100 or 10% is 50 times 2 = 100
25
Percent All percent's can be done this way. But 50% is easy because it is half and 25% is a quarter or half of half. 50% of 50 is 25. 25% of 250 is half of 125 = 62.5
26
Estimating 25.34 x 1.890 x 0.00318 x 4.1689 x 9.823 Simplify the numbers to 1-2 numbers each 25 x 2 x 0.003 x 4 x 10 Find numbers that are easiest to calculate and reduce (25 x 2 = 50 x 4 = 200 x 10 = 2000) x 0.003 2000 x 0.003 = 6
27
Now you should be able to… Calculate simple decimal, percent, and fraction examples relating to chemistry calculations. Objectives

HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video A4: Scientific Method
29
By the end of this video you should be able to… Utilize and explain the steps of the scientific method. Classify measurements and observations as qualitative or quantitative. Classify measurements and observations as intensive or extensive. Objectives
30
The Scientific Method 1. Identify the Problem or Purpose 2. Collect Information 3. Form a Hypothesis Including a) Claim: Your intelligent guess b) Evidence: Examples relating to your guess c) Reasoning: Explanation of your guess 4. Create a Procedure 5. Record Observations 6. Analyze data/ Make Inferences 7. Draw Conclusions/Amend Hypothesis
31
Observation versus Inference Observations use the senses. You observe what you can hear, smell, touch, hear or taste. Most students will have the same observations recorded. Inferences are small conclusions you make based on your observation. Many students will generate different inferences.
32
Observations and Inferences
33
Observations Observations are made many ways. They can be either: Qualitative: appearance or behaviors: not measured Quantative: a mathematical description. and either Extensive: dependant on the amount of matter Intensive: dependant on type of matter
34
Qual or Quant and Intensive or Extensive? Rough or smooth Shiny or dull Large or small Kinetic energy
35
Now you should be able to… Utilize and explain the steps of the scientific method. Classify measurements and observations as qualitative or quantitative. Classify measurements and observations as intensive or extensive. Objectives

HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video B1: Scientific Notation
38
By the end of this video you should be able to… Convert numbers into and out of scientific notation. Objectives
39
Scientific Notation What is the purpose for using scientific notation in science?
40
Scientific Notation M x 10 n M is between 1 and 10 n is the number of decimal spaces moved to make M
41
Rules 1. Find the decimal point. If it is not written, it is at the end of the number. 2. Move the decimal point to make the number between 1 and 10 3. Place the number of space you moved the decimal in the n spot. 4. If you original number was above 1, the exponent is positive. If the number was smaller that 1, the exponent is negative.
42
Examples 1020000 is equal to 1.02x10 6 0.00789 is equal to 7.89x10 -3 3.45x10 5 is equal to 345000 1.23x10 -4 is equal to 0.000123
43
Now you should be able to… Convert numbers into and out of scientific notation. Objectives
44
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video B2: Scientific Notation Multiply and Divide
45
By the end of this video you should be able to… Multiply and divide numbers in scientific notation without a calculator. Objectives
46
Scientific Notation in Mathematics Multiplication and Division: 1. Multiply or divide the base numbers. 2. When multiplying, add exponents. When dividing, subtract exponents. (8x10 5 )(2x10 3 ) = 16x10 8 or 1.6x10 9 (8x10 5 )/(2x10 3 ) = 4x10 2
47
Examples (2x10 6 ) x (4x10 7 ) = 8x10 13 (1x10 8 ) x (5x10 -2 ) = 5x10 6 (8x10 8 ) / (4x10 4 ) = 2x10 4 (9x10 6 ) / (3x10 -2 ) = 3x10 8
48
Now you should be able to… Multiply and divide numbers in scientific notation without a calculator. Objectives
49
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video B3: Scientific Notation Adding and Subtracting
50
By the end of this video you should be able to… Fix numbers that are not in proper scientific notation. Add and subtract numbers in scientific notation without a calculator. Objectives
51
Proper Scientific Notation The base number can only be between 1 and 10. If it is not in proper scientific notation form, change the base number to a number between 1 and 10 by moving the decimal. Count the movements. If the base number got smaller, increase the exponent the amount of times you moved the decimal. If the base number got larger, decrease the exponent the amount of times you moved the decimal.
52
Fix the following numbers 12x10 6 = 1.2x10 7 250x10 -3 = 2.50x10 -1 0.569x10 6 = 5.69x10 5 0.008x10 -2 = 8x10 -5
53
Scientific Notation in Mathematics Addition and Subtraction: 1. The exponents must be the same. Change your numbers to make this possible. 2. Add or subtract base numbers and do not change the exponent. * Remember: if the decimal move makes the base number smaller, the exponent increases. 5x10 5 + 3x10 4 = 5x10 5 + 0.3x10 5 = 5.3x10 5
54
Examples in Calculations (3x10 6 ) + (4x10 7 ) = (.3x10 7 ) + (4x10 7 ) = 4.3x10 7 (5x10 8 ) + (5x10 9 ) = (.5x10 9 ) + (5x10 9 ) = 5.5x10 9 (2x10 5 ) - (4x10 4 ) = (2x10 5 ) - (.4x10 5 ) = 1.6x10 5 (2x10 6 ) - (4x10 4 ) = (2x10 6 ) - (0.04x10 6 ) = 1.96x10 6 When in doubt, you could take it out of scientific notation and then put it back in but that takes a lot of time.
55
Now you should be able to… Fix numbers that are not in proper scientific notation. Add and subtract numbers in scientific notation without a calculator. Objectives
56
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video B4: Scientific Notation 2
57
By the end of this video you should be able to… Square, square root, and log numbers in scientific notation with out a calculator. Objectives
58
The Inverse of a Number in Scientific Notation If you need to take the inverse of a number in scientific notation, inverse the base number and multiply the exponent by -1. (2x10 5 ) -1 = 0.5x10 -5 = 5x10 -6 1/(4x10 5 ) = 0.25x10 -5 = 2.5x10 -6
59
Scientific Notation Number Raised to a Power If a number in scientific notation is raised to a power, raise the base number to that power and multiply the exponents. (2x10 -8 ) 2 = 4x10 -16 (4x10 3 ) 2 = 16x10 6 = 1.6x10 7 (2x10 -8 ) 3 = 8x10 -24
60
Square Root of Scientific Notation Numbers When taking the square root of a number in scientific notation, It is the same as raising it to the ½ power. Square root the base number and multiply the exponent by one half. 4x10 6 = 2x10 3 9x10 -2 = 3x10 -1 1.6x10 7 = 16x10 6 = 4x10 3
61
Logs for Chemistry Simple logs for chemistry require you to log a number with a base of 1. This means just reading the exponent! log(1x10 -9 ) = -9 log(1x10 2 ) = 2 log(1x10 -36 ) = -36
62
Now you should be able to… Square, square root, and log numbers in scientific notation with out a calculator. Objectives

HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video C1: Intro to Metric
65
By the end of this video you should be able to… Identify metric units of measurement. Convert simple metric measurements. Objectives
66
Our country still uses an old system with non uniform measurements such as: fractions of an inch... 12 inches to a foot…. 3 feet to a yard…. 5.5 yards to a rod... 320 rods to a mile... 43,560 sq ft to an acre... But almost all other countries use the metric system, which is disadvantageous for us.
67
But we do use the metric for a few things: We buy cola in liters... We buy memory cards in bites… We run 10 km races... We swim in 25 meter pools... Why haven’t we switched entirely to metric?
68
Measuring Length in meters When measuring a person we would use meters. If we are measuring an ant, would meters still be feasible? What should we use? If we are measuring the distance from your house to the school, what should we use? Always pick a prefix with a value close to what you are measuring.
71
Simple Conversions Convert 3,000 g to kg Convert 0.0007 g to mg Convert 250 cm to m Convert 9000 mm to m Convert 95L to mL Convert 2500mL to L Convert 2.0 pm to m Convert 350 nm to m 3 Kg 0.7 mg 2.50 m 9 m 95000 mL 2.5 L 2.0x10 -12 m 3.5x10 -7 m
72
Now you should be able to… Identify metric units of measurement. Convert simple metric measurements. Objectives
73
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video C2: Metric Conversions
74
By the end of this video you should be able to… Convert numbers in metric measurements. Objectives
75
The Metric System If a unit is getting larger (m km) the number must get smaller. [If the unit gets smaller (m cm) the number gets larger.] Examples: 1. 23.5cm = km 2. 3567mL = kL 3. 0.0984mg = ug 0.000235 0.003567 98.4
76
More Examples Convert 3,500 mg to kg Convert 0.0057 kg to mg Convert 250 cm to km Convert 9000 mm to cm Convert 95cL to mL Convert 2500mg to pg Convert 2.0 pm to mm Convert 350 nm to mm 0.035 kg 570 mg 0.0025 km 900 cm 950 mL 2.5x10 12 pg 2x10 -9 mm 0.000350 or 3.50x10 -4 mm

78
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video C3: Temperature Conversions
79
By the end of this video you should be able to… Convert temperature measurements between Celsius and Kelvin. Objectives
80
Temperature Conversions Notice that each scales is marked with BP and FP of water as well as absolute zero. The degree size of Celsius is equal to Kelvin. Therefore we adjust only for zero points: °C = K – 273 K = ° C + 273
81
More Examples Convert 0 ° C to K Convert 25°C to K Convert 100°C to K Convert 0K to °C Convert 298K to °C Convert 273K to °C 273K 298K 373K -273C 25C 0C
82
Thinking in Celsius -10° Celsius = frigid (14° F) 0° Celsius = cold (32° F) 10° Celsius = cool (50° F) 20° Celsius = comfortably warm (68° F) 30° Celsius = hot (86° F) 40° Celsius = very hot (104° F) 50° Celsius = Phoenix Hot (120°F)
83
Now you should be able to… Convert temperature measurements between Celsius and Kelvin. Objectives
84
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video C4: Density
85
By the end of this video you should be able to… Calculate density Objectives
86
Density depends on: Mass: the amount of matter an object contains. (This is different than weight, which is mass plus gravity) Volume: The amount of space a substance occupies
87
How do we measure mass in the lab? Electronic Balance
88
How can we measure volume? l x w x h (regular solid) ex. V = 1cm 3 Graduated cylinder (liquids) Read bottom of MENISCUS ex. V = 27.5 mL
89
Measuring Volume: Irregular Solid Water displacement method: 1. Measure initial volume 2. Measure final volume with object 3. The Difference is the volume of the object
90
Example What is the volume of the solid a. 46 mL b. 54 mL c. 8 mL d. 26 mL
91
Density Ratio of mass of an object to its volume Use density formula Located on Table T
92
Example 1 What is the density of an object with a mass of 60 g and a volume of 2 cm 3 ? 60/2 = 30 g/cm 3
93
Example 2 An object has a volume of 800 cm 3 and a density of 13 g/cm 3. Find its mass. 13 = x 800 10400g
94
Example 3: How to solve for mass or volume if density is not given: USE TABLE S Example: The volume of an aluminum sample is 100 cm 3. What is the mass of the sample? The density of aluminum on table S is 2.70g/cm 3 2.70 = x 100 270 g
95
Example 4 Determine the volume of an aluminum object with a mass of 40g. 2.70= 54 x 2.70 x = 54 20 cm 3
96
Now you should be able to… Calculate density. Objectives

100
Precision Versus Accuracy Precision: reproducibility, repeatability Accuracy: closeness to the correct answer 1. A student obtains the following data: 2.57mL 2.59mL 2.58mL 2.98mL Compare these pieces in terms of precision and accuracy.
101
Precision Versus Accuracy Describe these diagrams in terms of precision and accuracy: The first shows precision, not accuracy. The second shows accuracy, not precision.
102
In this classroom, what is more important: Precision or Accuracy?
103
Precision! Due to lack of precise equipment and variable climates we will most likely not end up with accurate results. Therefore, we will focus on refining our lab skills and strive for precise results.
104
Now you should be able to… Compare accuracy and precision. Objectives
105
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video D2: Significant Figures
106
By the end of this video you should be able to… Count the number of significant figures in a number. Objectives
107
Significant Figures When scientists take measurements their equipment can measure with varying degrees of precision. A scientists final calculation can only be as precise as their least precise measurement. Count digits in your measured number to determine their level of precision.
108
Counting Significant Figures All natural numbers 1-9 count once. 569 has 3SF3.456 has 4SF The number zero is tricky… Zeros always count between natural numbers: 109 have 3SF50089 has 5SF Zeros before a decimal and natural number never count. 0.00789 has 3SF001234 has 4SF Zeros after natural numbers only count IF there is a decimal present. 100 has 1SF100. has 3SF100.0 has 4SF
109
Now you should be able to… Count the number of significant figures in a number. Objectives
110
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video D3: Rounding with Sig Figs
111
By the end of this video you should be able to… Round calculated numbers to the appropriate number of significant figures. Objectives
112
Adding/Subtracting Significant Figures Remember: you can only be as precise as your least precise measurement. Therefore, when adding and subtracting, round your answer to the least number of DECIMAL PLACES. 2.0 + 5.61 = 7.61 = 7.6 5.67 + 102.111 = 107.781 = 107.78 23 + 11.10 = 34.10 = 34
113
Multiplying/Dividing Significant Figures Remember: you can only be as precise as your least precise measurement. Therefore, when multiplying or dividing, round your answer to the least number of significant figures. 2.0 x 35.1 = 70.2 = 70. 5.11 x 98.654 = 504.12194 = 504 72.1 / 3.123 = 23.0867755 = 23.1
114
More Examples Record the following with appropriate sig figs. 45.2 + 65.12 = 780 - 34.2 = 89.52/45.6 = 5 * 23 = (32.4-2.3)/5.4 = 3.5(523.6-123.12) = 110.3 746 43.9 100 5.6 140
115
Now you should be able to… Round calculated numbers to the appropriate number of significant figures. Objectives
116
HONORS CHEMISTRY SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Video D4: Errors in the Lab
117
By the end of this video you should be able to… Calculate percent error. Objectives
118
Percent Error The measured value is a number from the lab data. The accepted value is a number published or given to you by a teacher. It doesn’t really matter which order you subtract in. You should take the absolute value. Therefore I usually subtract the big- small number. But ALWAYS DIVIDE BY ACCEPTED VALUE!
119
Examples: Calculate % Error A student finds the density of a solid to be 5.6g/mL but the reference table states it should be 6.0g/mL. (6.0-5.6)/6 *100 = 6.6% A student finds the volume of a liquid to be 2.60L but the teacher says the correct answer is 2.45L. (2.60-2.45)/2.45 *100 = 6.1% The experimental value of the mass of a gas is 22.0L but the theoretical value is 22.4L. (22.4-22.0)/22.4 *100 = 2%
120
Now you should be able to… Calculate percent error. Objectives
121
Now What? Please practice problems in the summer assignment handout. I will be checking for evidence of your attempt in September. Email chemisme@gmail.com or chat me on Remind if you have questions.chemisme@gmail.com See you soon!
