1. Ch. 3, Scientific Measurement

2. Measurement : A quantity that has a and a. Like 52 meters.

3. Scientific Notation Writing long numbers as smaller ones to a power of ten. = 1.4 x 10 6 = 1.4E6.00056 = = 5.6E-4 15,093,000 = 1.5093 x 10 7 =

4. Accuracy vs. Precision * : How close a measurement comes to the value. * : How close a series of measurements are to.

5. Determining Error of a measurement = Experimental Value - Accepted Value – Can be positive or Percent Error = error / accepted value * 100% – or – Always Example, you measured 99 cm, but it is 100 cm.

6. : The digits in a measurement that are known plus one that is not known. – Filled 43.1 mL

7. Rules for Sig Figs Non-Zero Numbers are always significant – Ex).236 m has sig figs. Zeros between non-zero numbers are significant. – Ex) 7003 m and 40.79 m each have sig figs. Leftmost zeros are not significant – Ex).000099 m, 0.42 m, and.073 m each have sig figs. Rightmost zeros are significant if they come before or after a period. – Ex) 9000. m, 90.00 m, and 9.090 m each have sig figs.

8. Rules for Sig Figs Rightmost zeros with no decimal points are no significant. Ex) 300 m has sig fig. Exactly defined quantities have an number of sig figs. Seen most when converting between measurements. 60 min = 1 hour, 100 cm = 1 m each have an unlimited number of sig figs.

9. Is a Zero a Significant Number or Not? 504 L.06 mL 50.0 m 7,000 km

10. Sig Figs in Calculations: Calculations be more precise than the precise measurement. Addition or subtraction - Round the final answer to the same number of decimal places as the measurement with the number of decimal places. – the last “shared column”. 13.4 m + 5.254 m = 18.7 m

11. Sig Figs in Calculations: Multiplication or Division - The final answer should have the number of sig figs as the measurement that has the number of sig figs. 2.4526 m x 8.4 m = 21 m

12. In this class, delay rounding until the very end. (3.449L + 6.57L) * 8.779L / 5.2L = 17L

13. How much of something you have is given by Units. Like centimeters, kilometers, etc. is the standard measurement system for science. International System of Units

14. * The five SI units used most by chemists are: Distance = (m) Mass = kilogram (kg) Temperature = (K) Time = second (s) Volume = liter (L) Amount = (mol).

15. Prefixes can be used in front of units for powers of 10.

16. = how much “stuff” is in something. How much matter is in something. = the pull on something by gravity. If I go to the moon, which changes and which stays constant? - changes, stays the same.

17. Temperature: Celsius and Kelvin are units of temperature that are the, just shifted. K = C + 273 Water freezes at 0 C and at K. Absolute Zero = 0 K; a K value will never be negative.

18. *Energy * - The ability to do work or produce heat. (J) is the SI unit of energy. (cal) is another unit of energy. 1 J =.239 cal

19. Conversions Convert 7 mm to m. Convert 12.4 Mm to cm.

20. Convert 7 km/ms to m/s An experiment asks students to measure 1.50 g of Cu wire. All we have is a 40.0 g spool of Cu. How many students can do the experiment?

21. *Density * = mass / volume What is the density of 2 g of salt in a volume of 4 L? What is the density in g/L of 5 kg of salt in a volume of 6 mL?

22. If silver has a density of 10.5 g/L, what is the volume of a silver coin that has a mass of 14 g?

23. Density as temperature increases. D=m/v As T increases, V. Therefore, density decreases.
