Measured Values Accuracy of a measurement is the closeness of the measurement to the true value. Precision refers to the reproducibility within a group of measurements.
5
Index Precision, Accuracy and Error Accuracy = % Error = 100 X (Experimental – Actual) Actual Value Precision = % Deviations = 100 X ( ave. deviation) mean deviation = l measured – mean l
6
Index Measuring values More Precise

Index Measured Values: Precision Significant Digits (means MEASURED) –ALL Numbers are important –need Rules to know how many to write

Index Sig Fig Rules : multiply and divide Answer has same number of significant digits as the number with the least significant digits. Ex. 12.65 x 42.1 = 532.565 XX =533 4 3 3
10
Index RULES: ADD AND SUBTRACT decimal place determines the number of digits. The last COMMON decimal place is the last number you can justify Ex. 10.13 + 20.5 30.63 X = 30.6

UV radiation is very energetic and causes your skin to burn. If you are exposed to 1.00 Mole of photons with a wavelength of 305. nm, what amount of energy (in kilojoules per mole) are you being hit by? Speed of light = 2.998 x 10 8 m/s Plank’s Constant = 6.626 x 10 -34 J s

Index Types of Observations and Measurements We make QUALITATIVE observations of reactions — changes in color and physical state.We make QUALITATIVE observations of reactions — changes in color and physical state. We also make QUANTITATIVE MEASUREMENTS, which involve numbers.We also make QUANTITATIVE MEASUREMENTS, which involve numbers.

Index UNITS OF MEASUREMENT Use SI units — based on the metric system LengthMassTimeTemperature Meter, m Kilogram, kg Seconds, s Celsius degrees, ˚C kelvins, K
19
Index Units of Length 1 kilometer (km) = ? meters (m)1 kilometer (km) = ? meters (m) 1 meter (m) = ? centimeters (cm)1 meter (m) = ? centimeters (cm) 1 centimeter (cm) = ? millimeter (mm)1 centimeter (cm) = ? millimeter (mm) 1 nanometer (nm) = 1.0 x 10 -9 meter1 nanometer (nm) = 1.0 x 10 -9 meter O—H distance = 9.4 x 10 -11 m 9.4 x 10 -9 cm 0.094 nm O—H distance = 9.4 x 10 -11 m 9.4 x 10 -9 cm 0.094 nm
