44. You and a partner will practice your significant digits. Your job is to come up with a number containing both zeroes and non-zero digits. You will trade boards back and forth – on my mark. The partner that gets the correct number of significant digits will get the point. The partner with the most points will win the round. We will do best of 9.

45.  Count (from left to right) how many significant figures you need.  Look at the next number to see if you need to round your last sig. fig. up or down. Round the following to 3 sig. figs 1. 1,344 2. 0.00056784 3. 24,500 4. 12,345 5. 2.45678 x 10 -3

47. We have two ways of categorizing sig. fig. calculations: A) Addition and Subtraction B) Multiplication, Division, other math

48. When we add and subtract we are only worried about the number of decimal places involved in the numbers present. We do not care about the number of actual significant digits. We will always pick the number that has the least decimal places.

49. A) 14.0 + 2.45 B) 12 + 7.2 C) 0.00123 + 1.005 D) 100 – 5.8 E) 2.5 – 1.25 F) 43.786 – 32.11

50. If we are multiplying, dividing, using exponents, trigonometry, calculus, etc we must use the least number of significant digits of the numbers in the set. For example...

51. A) 12 × 5.00F) 119 / 32 B) 8.45 × 4.3G) 756.2 / 29.8 C) 0.0125 × 7.532H) 0.976 / 0.0044 D) 5.6 × 11.7I ) 981 / 756.23 E) 34.1 × 0.55J) 43.2 / 12.45

52.  Density – the amount of matter present in a given volume of a substance, the ratio of the mass of an object to its volume.  D = mass  Volume

54.  Celsius Scale – based on the freezing point (0 o C) and boiling point (100 o C) of water.  Kelvin Scale – based on absolute zero (the temperature at which all motion ceases). 1 degree Kelvin is equal to 1 degree Celsius.  Fahrenheit Scale – used in US and Great Britain. Degrees are smaller than a Celsius or Kelvin degree.

56.  Kelvin/Celsius K = o C + 273  Fahrenheit/Celsius o F = 1.80( o C) + 32

57.  Exact Numbers are counting numbers or defined numbers (such as 2.45 cm = 1 in) - never limit the number of significant figures in a calculation.
