18 Units of Measurement Date:

19 Song

20 SI UNITS  International System of Units  Measurements used around the world so results are comparable.

21 Base Units  How would you define base units?  Basic unit of measurement

22 Length  Meter, m

23 Mass  Kilogram, kg

24 Amount of Substance  Mole, mol

25 Temperature  Kelvin, K  NO degree sign!  Absolute Temperature  no negative #  At absolute 0, all molecular motion stops  Celsius to Kelvin  o C + 273 = K  Celsius to Fahrenheit  o F = (9/5* o C) + 32

26 Derived Units  Define  A combination of base units

27 Volume m3m3m3m3  Length x width x height  Not very practical unit so we’ll use L  1 cm 3 = 1 mL  1000 L = 1 m 3

28 Density  Mass / volume  Kg/m 3  More practical g/mL

29 Pressure  Force / Area  mmHg, torr, kPa, atm

30 Reliability of Measurements  Accuracy: the closeness of a single measurement to its true value.  Hitting the bullseye.

31  Precision: the closeness of a set of values to each other.

32 Measurement Exploration  Which measuring devices are more precise?

33 Basic Formula A * 10 exponent  A number between 1 and 10  If original number > than 1, exponent +  If original # < than 1, exponent -

34 Practice  3000  2653000  54600  130  0.000056  0.00456  0.07869  3.1415926
