1 Metric Olympics

2 Drill Using the correct amount of sig figs, what is the measurement of the liquids below:

3 Remember When making a measurement in the lab, you need to add an estimate digit Disclaimer: When using a balance, the last digit is already an estimated digit, so you do not need to add an additional digit You will notice that it will vary between at least 2 numbers 

4 Agenda Drill Metric Olympics Conversions with your data
Stations Conversions with your data Sig Fig Math Application Looking Forward

5 I Can… Correctly use a ruler and graduated cylinder to measure length or volume with the correct number of sig figs Use the correct math sig fig rule to solve a problem Convert between different metric units and put the answer in scientific notation

6 Metric Olympics There are 6 Stations around the room with each event
Direction for each event are posted You will have 5 minutes at each station – work efficiently at each station Each group member will record ALL member’s data

7 Each person will complete the event once
Remember to use the correct number of sig figs when measuring

8 Conversion Sheet Take YOUR data and convert the number to the desired unit Then take that answer and convert to scientific notation When you are done, take out your review packet and continue working on it until others are done!

9 Looking Forward – A Day Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday
Sept. 21 Metric Olympics Sept. 22 Sept. 23 Density Percent Error Sept. 26 Sept. 27 Review Sept. 28 Sept. 29 Unit 1 Test!! Sept. 30

10 Looking Forward – B Day Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday
Sept. 22 Metric Olympics Sept. 23 Sept. 26 Density Percent Error Sept. 27 Sept. 28 Review Sept. 29 Sept. 30 Unit 1 Test!!

11 Review Packet In Review Packet, you should be working on: Matter: 1-22
Sig Figs: 23 – 31 Metric and Scientific Notation: 32 – 36 Sig Fig Math: 37 – 40 Accuracy vs. Precision: 49

12 Why is a graduated cylinder more precise than a beaker?
What determines a device’s precision When reading a device, how can we make sure that the values we report are accurate? How do we express our uncertainty in the measurement
