Chapter 2 - Introduction to instruments and units used

1. Observation is a science process skill used in investigations 2. Observations Qualitative Quantitative 3. Qualitative observations -5 senses -descriptions e.g. It is smooth. The gas is pungent and colourless. It is moving quickly. 4. Quantitative observation -accurate measurements using instruments e.g metre rule, measuring tape, vernier calipers, measuring cylinder, pipette, burette, electronic balance, spring balance

1. A physical quantity is a quantity which can be measured. e.g. length, area, volume, time, temperature, mass 2. A non-physical quantity is one which cannot be measured. e.g beauty, kindness, humour, sadness, untidiness Physical Quantities

is an error in a measurement due to the eye not being in the correct position when taking a reading. For accurate measurements using the metre rule or measuring tape, the eye must be placed vertically above the mark being read to prevent parallax error. Parallax Error

- placing the eye vertically above the marking on the scale to be read. - placing a thick ruler on its edge beside the object to be measured so that the scale is touching it - using a thin ruler so that the scale is touching the object to be measured When using a ruler, parallax errors can be avoided by
