7. Make three observations about Nicki!

8. What is an Observation? Observations
Are descriptions that you make by using the 5 senses
Sight
Hearing
Taste
Smell
Touch
Are FACTS!

9. From your Lab… Let’s review the analysis questions.
How do you define quantitative observations?
How do you define qualitative observations?

10. Types of Observations
There are 2 types of observations.
Quantitative observations: facts that can be described using numbers or measurements.
Quantitative observations are usually exact.
Example: There are 57 pieces of candy on the table.
Qualitative observations: facts that can be described using adjectives.
Qualitative observations are usually more general.
Example: There is a blue bubbly liquid in the beaker.

11. Observations
Write 2 qualitative observations about the butterfly…

12. Observations
Write 2 quantitative observations about the gummy bears…

13. Observation Activity On a scrap piece of paper
Choose one individual in the room, DO NOT write their name down.
Write TWO qualitative observations about that person
Write TWO quantitative observations about that person
I will come around and collect your sheets.

33. What is the Metric System? -Write this down
the (almost) universal decimal measuring system based on the meter, liter, and gram as units on length, volume, and mass.

34. Countries that don’t use the metric system as their standard.

35. Countries that use the metric system…

36. In Science We will use the metric system ONLY
In this way, we have a universal measurement system that we can use to communicate with international scientists because science is universal!

37. The International System of Units (SI) also known as the metric system.
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

38. The simplicity of the metric system stems from the fact that there is only one unit of measurement (or base unit) for each type of quantity measured (length, mass, etc.).

44. Conversion Practice
Unit Conversions express an amount in a different unit
For example:
The hallway is 237 in wide
1 in = 2.54 cm
The hallway is cm wide
1 m = 100 cm
The hallway is 6.02 m wide

45. Practice
Tomorrow we will get into specifics for how to convert b/t unit.
For now, on your lab sheet we are going to change inches into cm or vice-versa.
1 in = 2.54 cm

46. 1 in = 2.54 cm
If you have INCHES and want to get CENTIMETERS: multiply the number of in. by 2.54
If you have CENTIMETERS and want to get INCHES: divide the number of cm by 2.54.

Density is how much matter there is in a certain amount of space.

72. Which one is more dense?
How about this: Which square is more dense?

73. Which one is more dense?
Now which one is more dense?

74. What is density? Density = mass volume Units : g/mL or g/cm3
Why are these the units for density?
ADD to your Conversion sheet:
1 mL = 1 cm3
ALWAYS REMEMBER UNITS!

75. 1 mL = 1 cm3

76. G = given U = unknown E = equation S = substitute S = solve
Guess Method
G = given
U = unknown
E = equation
S = substitute
S = solve
Example:
d = ?
V = 50 mL
M = 43.5 g
