5 2.2 SI UNITS 3. IMPORTANT EQUIVALENCES 1 mL = 1 cm 3 1 m 3 = 10 3 L 1 t = 10 3 kg

6 2.2 SI UNITS Example: Re-write the expression “6 kilograms” using PREFIX and UNIT SYMBOLS an EXPONENTIAL EQUIVALENT The prefix symbol for kilo is ___ and the unit symbol for grams is ___ 6 kilograms = The exponential equivalent to kilo is ____ 6 kilograms =

7 METRIC CONVERSIONS Metric conversions involve using unit conversions between prefix symbols and exponential equivalents. Example: Write a conversion statement between cm and m.

8 M ETRIC CONVERSIONS Write conversion statements between each of the following dm and m cs and s dmol and mol

9 METRIC CONVERSIONS How many milligrams are in 5 kg?

10 METRIC CONVERSIONS Express 7µm in Megametres

11 M ETRIC CONVERSIONS How many decilitres in 0.5kL?

12 M ULTI C ONVERSION Convert 1cg/ mL into dg/L

13 METRIC CONVERSIONS DERIVED QUANTITIES Derived quantity = Derived unit =

14 D ENSITY Density is an example of a derived unit What is density? Density =

16 D ERIVED UNITS : DENSITY Given that a 2.44 cm 3 sample of an element has a mass of 47.14 g. Determine the density of the element.

17 D ERIVED UNITS Find the volume of a block of wood that has a mass of 34.5 grams. The density of this wood is 12g/ cm 3
