7. Scientific Measurement Mrs. Falatek

8. Definition Comparison to a standard

9. Metric System  Based on units of 10  Used internationally and always in science  Base Units: –Meter = length –Liter = volume –Gram = mass –Kelvin = temperature –Ampere = current

10. Measuring Distance... Length Length –Distance between two points.

11. Measuring Volume... Volume Volume –amount of space occupied by an object. –The volume of a two dimensional, rectangular object = length times its width. –The volume of a three dimensional rectangular object = length times width times height. 1 mL = 1 cm 3

12. Measuring Volume... Volume Volume –The volume of an irregularly shaped object is calculated by VOLUME DISPLACEMENT! –See drawing on board.

13. Measuring Temperature... Temperature Temperature –is a measure of how much energy a substance has. –The SI unit for temperature is Kelvin, K. Other common units for temperature are (ask class for examples) Celsius, C, and Fahrenheit, F.

31. Density is an INTENSIVE property. Density depends only on the composition of a substance, not on the size of the sample. Density depends only on the composition of a substance, not on the size of the sample. Is defined as mass per unit volume. Is defined as mass per unit volume. Is calculated by dividing mass by volume. Units are g/ml or g/cm 3. Is calculated by dividing mass by volume. Units are g/ml or g/cm 3.

32. Calculating Density Let’s try these: Let’s try these: A copper penny has a mass of 3.1 g and a volume of 0.35 cm 3. What is the density of copper? A copper penny has a mass of 3.1 g and a volume of 0.35 cm 3. What is the density of copper? A bar of silver has a mass of 68.0 g and a volume of 6.48 cm 3. What is the density of silver? A bar of silver has a mass of 68.0 g and a volume of 6.48 cm 3. What is the density of silver?

33. How do we measure density? Measure the area of a REGULARLY SHAPED object to get its density Measure the area of a REGULARLY SHAPED object to get its density Water displacement for IRREGULARLY SHAPED objects (like a rock) Water displacement for IRREGULARLY SHAPED objects (like a rock)

34. AGENDA 6-OCT:  Submit Measurement Review WS  Notes – Sig Figs  CW – Sig Figs Practice Homework  Test Monday 10/13

35. Significant Figures Refers to the digits of a number of which we are CERTAIN (no one would argue with us) plus Refers to the digits of a number of which we are CERTAIN (no one would argue with us) plus ONLY ONE of which we are UNCERTAIN (we each might have a different digit as the final digit) ONLY ONE of which we are UNCERTAIN (we each might have a different digit as the final digit)

36. Rules for Sig Figs  SIGNIFICANT 1.All non-zero numbers (1 through 9) 2.All “trapped” zeros 3.END and AFTER = at the end of a number AND after the decimal  NOT SIGNIFICANT 1.Place holder zeros

37. Counting sig figs  IT’S THE ZEROS THAT ARE TRICKY!!  How many sig figs here: 1.1096.1090 2.20037. 20030 3.2008. 200. 4.0.365059. 0.0036505 5.0.00210. 0.00200

38. Significant Figures Multiplying & dividing- answers must contain the same number of significant figures as in the number that has the least amount of significant figures Adding & subtracting - answers must contain the same number of digits as in the number with the greatest uncertainty (least number of decimal places)

39. AGENDA 7-OCT:  Submit Homework  Notes – Scientific Notation  CW – Scientific Notation Practice & Accuracy/Precision WS Homework  Scientific Notation WS  Test MONDAY 10/13

40. Scientific Notation  Shorthand number writing  0.000000459 g = 4.59 x 10 -7 g

41. 4.59 x 10 -7 g 1. 4.59 = must be between 1 and 10 2. 10 = always base 10 3. - = tells if original number is less than one (-) or greater than one (+) AND direction you moved decimal 4. 7 = how many places decimal moved

42. Try these  0.00087 8.7 x 10 -4  23,000,000 2.3 x 10 7  269.23 2.6923 x 10 2  0.00316 3.16 x 10 -3

43. Confusing Words in Science  Accurate – a measure of how close a measurement comes to the actual value of whatever is measure.  Precise – a measure of how close a series of measurements are to one another.

44. Confusing Words in Science In my own words…  Accurate = you’re right!  Precise = a bunch of numbers are close together

45. Accuracy and Precision  Accurate = you’re right!  Precise = a bunch of numbers are close together

46. Accuracy and Precision To evaluate accuracy, you must compare your value to the correct value!  Error = experimental value – accepted value  % Error = (error ÷ accepted value) x 100

47. Calculating Error During an experiment, I found the boiling point of pure water to be 98°C, however we all know the accepted value to be 100°C. Calculate the percent error in my measurement.  Error = 98°C – 100°C  % Error = (2°C ÷ 100°C) x 100 = 2%
