13. THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD 1. THINK OF AN IDEA OR PROBLEM 2. RESEARCH 3. PLAN AN EXPERIMENT 4. EXPERIMENT 5. COLLECT DATA 6. DRAW CONCLUSIONS

14. What is a hypothesis?

15. Types of Observations and Measurements We make QUALITATIVE observations of reactions — changes in color and physical state.We make QUALITATIVE observations of reactions — changes in color and physical state. We also make QUANTITATIVE MEASUREMENTS, which involve numbers.We also make QUANTITATIVE MEASUREMENTS, which involve numbers. –Use SI units — based on the metric system

16. EXPERIMENTS CONTAIN: Independent variables: Is changed by regular intervals. Dependent variable: measured against independent variable Control: Used to show whether the measured factor has any effect.

17. Determine the independent and dependent variables, hypothesis, and control in the following: A student thought that watering plants with an iron solution and then placing magnets over them would cause them to grow faster. She watered one set with the iron solution and one with plain water. Both sets of plants had magnets hung over them. The height of the plants was measured once a week.

20. Standards of Measurement When we measure, we use a measuring tool to compare some dimension of an object to a standard. For example, at one time the standard for length was the king’s foot. What are some problems with this standard?

21. Stating a Measurement In every measurement there is a  Number followed by a  Unit from a measuring device The number should also be as precise as the measurement!

22. UNITS OF MEASUREMENT Use SI units — based on the metric system LengthMassVolumeTimeTemperature Meter, m Kilogram, kg Seconds, s Celsius degrees, ˚C kelvins, K Liter, L

23. Mass vs. Weight Mass: Amount of Matter (grams, measured with a BALANCE)Mass: Amount of Matter (grams, measured with a BALANCE) Weight: Force exerted by the mass, only present with gravity (pounds, measured with a SCALE)Weight: Force exerted by the mass, only present with gravity (pounds, measured with a SCALE) Can you hear me now?
