DOR: Conversions 1) 40 ft/sec to miles/hr 2) 2.50 m 2 to cm 2
2
DENSITY AND SI UNITS
3
Scientific Measurements SI Units Significant Figures
4
SI Units Measurement system universal to scientists. Measurement standards (base and derived) Base unit— Quantity we can MEASURE Derived unit-- Quantity provided by CALCULATION
5
SI Units (cont.) Base Mass = kilogram (kg) Length = Meter (m) Time = Second (s) Temperature = Kelvin (°K) Derived Volume = m 3, we will use cm 3 /ml ml is NOT an SI unit Density = kg/m 3, we will use g/cm 3 or g/ml
6
Mass vs. Weight What is the difference? How do we measure mass?
7
Density Physical property of matter/substances Used for substance identification Provides information on how solids/liquids interact Ratio of a substance’s mass and volume Density = Mass/Volume Units = SI Unit (kg/m 3 ), we will use g/cm 3 or g/ml
8
Example 1: A student records V1= 2.7ml and V2= 3.4 ml after placing an object in a graduated cylinder. The mass of an empty beaker is 1.13g and the mass of both the beaker and substance is 4.13g. What is the object’s density?
9
Example 2: It has been estimated that there are 4 x 10 -6 mg of gold per liter of sea water. At a price of $22.30 per gram of gold, what would be the value of gold in 1.00 cubic kilometers of the ocean?
10
Example 3: A metallic sphere has a diameter of 0.200 inches and a mass of 0.0066 ounces. What is the density of this object, in units of g/cm 3 ?
