6. Units of Measurement Qualitative description – describes qualities/appearance ex: large, small, texture, color Qualitative description – describes qualities/appearance ex: large, small, texture, color Quantative description – describes numbers ex: 15 grams, 125 pounds Quantative description – describes numbers ex: 15 grams, 125 pounds Quantity – something that has magnitude or size Quantity – something that has magnitude or size

7. Units of Measure Unit – a standard used when measuring a quantity ex: 15 grams (grams is the unit) Unit – a standard used when measuring a quantity ex: 15 grams (grams is the unit) Every numerical measurement must have a quantity and a unit!!! Every numerical measurement must have a quantity and a unit!!!

8. SI Units MeasurementQuantityUnit 15 kilograms 15kilograms 30 millimeters 30millimeters

9. The Measurement System of Science Do these mean anything to you? Do these mean anything to you? Kilo: Kilo: –kilometer, kilogram Centi: Centi: –centimeter, cents, century Deca Deca –Decathlon, decade

10. SI Units Scientists use a system called the SI System Scientists use a system called the SI System –Allows for universal measurements –Enables you to use more manageable numbers SI units chart and SI prefixes chart SI units chart and SI prefixes chart

11. SI Prefixes! UnitSymbolMeaning MegaM1M(b.u.) = 1,000,000 (b.u.) Kilok1k(b.u.) = 1,000 (b.u.) Hectoh1h(b.u.) = 100 (b.u.) Decada1da(b.u.) = 10 (b.u.) Base Unit Decid10 d(b.u.) = 1 (b.u.) Centic100 c(b.u.) = 1 (b.u.) Millim1,000 m(b.u.) = 1 (b.u.) Microμ1,000,000 μ(b.u.) = 1 (b.u.)

12. So what? How do we use them? Any SI unit has two parts: Any SI unit has two parts: –prefix –base For example, For example, –kilo-gram –kilo-meter –centi-meter –centi-gram So, what do we call 10 grams? So, what do we call 10 grams? –deca-gram What do we call.001 seconds? What do we call.001 seconds? –milli-second How about.1 liters? How about.1 liters? –deci-liter

13. Conversion Factors Conversion Factor – a mathematical expression that relates two units Conversion Factor – a mathematical expression that relates two units Quarters and dollars conversion factor – 4 quarters = 1 dollar Quarters and dollars conversion factor – 4 quarters = 1 dollar Convert 18 quarters to dollars Convert 18 quarters to dollars

14. Conversions Start with what you know Start with what you know What you are going to goes in the top and coming from goes in the bottom What you are going to goes in the top and coming from goes in the bottom Convert 3 dollars to quarters Convert 3 dollars to quarters

15. Conversions Convert 45 minutes to hours. Convert 45 minutes to hours. 0.75 hours 0.75 hours Convert 2.5 hours to minutes. Convert 2.5 hours to minutes. 150 minutes 150 minutes

16. Conversions Convert 100 millimeters to meters Convert 100 millimeters to meters 1 meter = 1000millimeters 1 meter = 1000millimeters 0.1m 0.1m Convert 3 hours to seconds Convert 3 hours to seconds 10,800 seconds 10,800 seconds

17. Conversions Convert 0.12 kg to mg Convert 0.12 kg to mg Must convert to base unit first if going from one side to the other. Must convert to base unit first if going from one side to the other. Convert 130 cm to Mm Convert 130 cm to Mm

18. Derived Units When 7 main don’t cover it Speed = distance over time or meters/second Rectangle = l x w = m 2 Common for chemistry is 1 L = 1000 mL = 1000 cm 3

19. Properties of Matter Physical Property – a characteristic of a substance that does not involve a chemical change - ex: density, color, melting point, b.p., texture Physical Property – a characteristic of a substance that does not involve a chemical change - ex: density, color, melting point, b.p., texture Also can be seen by the absence of something like color Also can be seen by the absence of something like color – it’s colorless

20. Properties of Matter Chemical Property – a property of matter that describes a substances ability to participate in chemical rxns Chemical Property – a property of matter that describes a substances ability to participate in chemical rxns ex: iron rusts in the presence of oxygen, acids react with bases to form salts ex: iron rusts in the presence of oxygen, acids react with bases to form salts

21. Specific Physical Property Density – the ratio of mass to volume D=m/v Density – the ratio of mass to volume D=m/v Usually expressed as g/cm 3 for solids and g/L for gases Usually expressed as g/cm 3 for solids and g/L for gases Does not depend on how much of the substance you have Does not depend on how much of the substance you have

22. Density Silver Bracelet Silver Bracelet Mass is 100.0 g and when it displaces water, volume is 20.5 cm 3 Mass is 100.0 g and when it displaces water, volume is 20.5 cm 3 Density of silver is 10.5 g/cm 3 Density of silver is 10.5 g/cm 3 Is this a silver bracelet? Is this a silver bracelet?
