2. Measurement 101

3. Your Mission… (Today’s Objective) Essential Question: What are SI Units of Measurement and why do we use them in science? Students Will Know: What SI Units are Why SI is the preferred method of measurement for scientist The science instruments used to find the measurements

4. Once Upon A Time… Standardized units of measurement were based on parts of the body How would that cause confusion? In the late 1700s the French Academy of Scientists developed a system that would standardize units.

5. METRIC SYSTEM AKA INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM OF UNITS ( SI ) Meter (m)—length, used for measuring the distance between things Second (s)—time, there are 60 of them in a minute Ampere (A)—an amount of electric current, quite shocking; Candela (cd)—brightness, the amount of useful light (light humans can see by) an object emits; Kelvin (K)—temperature, this unit tells you how hot or cold something is Kilogram (kg)—mass, a measure of the amount of matter an object has, related to, but not the same as, weight; and Mole (mol)—an Avogadro's number's worth of "entities," like a chemist's, as opposed to a baker's, dozen (One mole of something has 6.022 x 10 23 atoms or molecules.)

6. Meters (m) Meters measure length Measure of something from end to end 5 cm

7. Kelvin (K) Kelvins measure temperature Measures how hot or cold something is 1° K = 273 °C Add 273 degrees to temperature in Celsius to get degrees in Kelvin °C + 273= °K 100°C + 273 373°K Lightning Quick Make it Stick: What would be the temperature in Celsius if the temperature is 573K?

9. Kilogram (kg) Kilograms measure mass Measure of the amount of matter in an object

10. Cubic Meter (cm 3 ) Cubic Meters measures volume Measure of the size of a body or region in three-dimensional space Volume = length x width x height cm 3 is the base unit which is also equivalent to 1 mL. We will use the Liters in class.

11. Lightning Quick Make it Stick: What is the name of this instrument?
