1. Bell Work 08/13/2012 Write question and answer in notes What are the steps to the scientific method?

2. Unit 1 Essential Question What tools, skills, and knowledge are needed to conduct scientific inquiry?

3. What is the purpose of the scientific method? Logical approach to solving problems by observing and collecting data, formulating hypothesis, testing the hypothesis, and to formulate theories that are supported by data

4. Observation vs. Inference Observation What you see May also be based on senses Inference Conclusion or assumption made by using context clues/observations

5. Hypothesis If, then statement Example: (I have a headache) – If I take an aspirin; then, I will no longer have a headache.

6. Deductive vs. Inductive reasoning Deductive Reasoning General  Specific Example: All bachelors are single men. Johnny is a single man. Therefore, Johnny is a bachelor. Inductive Reasoning Specific  General

7. Qualitative vs. Quantitative Qualitative Data – Description of observation – Sky is blue (color) Quantitative Data – Numerical value – Copper ore has a mass of 25.7 – Readings of mass, temperature, volume

8. Experiments Variable – A quantity that can have more than a single value Independent variable Dependent variable Constant – Factor that does not change when other variables change Control – Standard by which test results can be compared to

9. Independent vs. Dependent Variables Independent Variable Variable is manipulated This is the cause Plotted on x-axis Dependent Variable Response The effect Plotted on the y-axis

10. Exit Slip 08/13/2012 Differentiate between qualitative data and quantitative data.

11. Bell Work 08-14-2012 Please write question and answer. Differentiate between scientific law and scientific theory. A theory can change if its supporting data changes. A law is assumed to be true and doesn’t change. Also, a law tells what happens but does not explain why. Theories try to explain why things happen.

12. SI Unit Standards of measurement – Standard: exact quantity that people agree to use for comparison Constant values Easy to preserve and reproduce Practical in size

13. Direct Measurements Base Units – Mass; kilogram; kg – Length; meter; m – Time; seconds; s – Temperature; Kelvin; K – Electric current; ampere; A – Amount of substance; mole; mol

14. SI unit Prefixes kilo- 1000 hecto-100 deka-10 BASE UNIT-1 deci-.1 (10) centi-0.01 (100) milli-0.001 (1000) micro-0.000001 (1000000) nano-0.000000001 (1000000000)

15. Conversion Factors Used to change one unit to another We use dimensional analysis to convert between units

16. Teacher Example 42g = kg

17. Class Practice 3.61 ml = L

18. You Practice 8 m = cm

19. Derived SI Units What are derived units? – Combinations of SI Base units by multiplying or dividing standard units Table 3 page 36

20. Formulas You Should Know Volume (V) = length x width x height – Cubic meter or m³ – 1 cm³/1 mL Density (D) = mass/volume – Kilograms per cubic meter or kg/m³ Molar mass (M) = mass/amount of substance – Kilograms per mole or kg/mol

21. What is density? Ratio of mass to volume “how much stuff you have in a given space” kg/m ³ is too large of a value to work with in the lab; so, often expressed as g/cm³, g/ml, and for gasses g/L or kg/L.

22. Rules to follow for working math problems 1.Write down all the information that is given in the problem and put a box around it. This is your “given box” 2.Write the equation that you are going to use to solve the problem. 3.Manipulate the equation if necessary to get the desired variable on the left side of the equal sign 4.Plug in your given and solve 5.Box in your answers 6.Units must be clearly marked throughout the entire problem, especially in the answer.

23. Practice Problem A sample of aluminum metal has a mass of 8.4 g. The volume of the sample is 3.1 cm ³. Calculate the density of aluminum. Given: mass (m) = 8.4 g volume (V)= 3.1 cm ³ Unknown: Density

24. Practice Problem What is the density of a block of marble that occupies 310 cm ³ and has a mass of 853 g? 2.75g/cm

25. Practice Problem Diamond has a density of 3.26 g/cm³. What is the mass of a diamond that has a volume of 0.351 cm ³? 1.14 g

26. Practice Problem What is the volume of a sample of liquid mercury that has a mass of 76.2 g given that the density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL? 5.60 mL

27. Science, Technology, Society Baby born today is expected to live 30 yrs longer than a baby born 100 yrs ago. Chemistry has made this possible by: Manufacturing of vaccines and antibiotics Increased understanding of human nutritional needs Fertilizers in argriculture

28. Nutrition Keeps food fresher longer Refrigeration, pasteurization, drying, salting, add preservatives Chemical techniques give fatty acids, amino acids, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals

29. Everyday Applications Does adding salt to water while boiling make the water boil faster? Antacids Yeast A lot of chemical technology that saves lives or improve quality of life has had a negative impact on environment. Ex: fossil fuels, acid rain, ozone layer
