Metric System Review

3. SI units
Used in nearly every country in the world, the Metric System was devised by French scientists in the late 18th century. The goal of this effort was to produce a system that used the decimal system rather than fractions as well as a single unified system that could be used throughout the entire world.

4. In 1960, an international committee of scientists revised the metric system and renamed it the Systeme International d”Unites, which is abbreviated SI.

5. There are seven base units in SI
There are seven base units in SI. A base unit is a defined unit in a system of measurement that is based on an object or event in the physical world.

6. The REAL kilogram, the International Prototype Kilogram (IPK) is kept in the International Bureau of Weights and Measures near Paris. Several official clones of this kilogram are kept in various locations around the globe.

8. A subset of the prefixes is Tera- (12), Giga- (9), Mega- (6), Micro- (-6), Nano- (-9), Pico- (-12), Femto- (-15), Atto- (-18):

9. Converting With SI (metric)
When converting within the metric system it is simply a measure of moving the decimal in the appropriate direction.

.001 hg = ______ dg
42.7 L = _____ cL

11. Things to remember
The short forms for metric units are called symbols, NOT abbreviations
Metric symbols never end with a period unless they are the last word in a sentence.
RIGHT: 20 mm, 10 kg
WRONG: 20 mm., 10 kg.
Metric symbols should be preceded by digits and a space must separate the digits from the symbols
RIGHT: the box was 2 m wide
WRONG: the box was 2m wide

12. Things to remember
The short forms for metric units are called symbols, NOT abbreviations
Metric symbols never end with a period unless they are the last word in a sentence.
RIGHT: 20 mm, 10 kg
WRONG: 20 mm., 10 kg.
Metric symbols should be preceded by digits and a space must separate the digits from the symbols
RIGHT: the box was 2 m wide
WRONG: the box was 2m wide

13. Things to remember Symbols are always written in the singular form
RIGHT: 500 hL, 43 kg
WRONG: 500 hLs, 43 kgs
BUT: It is correct to pluralize the written out metric unit names: 500 hectoliters, 43 kilograms
The compound symbols must be written out with the appropriate mathematical sign included
RIGHT: 30 km/h, 12 cm/s
WRONG: 30 kmph, 30 kph (do NOT use a p to symbolize “per”)
BUT: It is ok to write out “kilometers per hour”

14. Things to remember
The meaning of a metric symbol is different depending on if it is lowercase or capitalized
mm is millimeters (1/1000 meters)
Mm is Megameters (1 million meters)

15. A unit that is defined by a combination of base units is called a derived unit. The derived unit for volume is the cubic centimeter (cm3), which is used to measure volume of solids, one cm3 is equal to 1 ml mL is equal to 1 Liter.

18. Another derived unit is Density is a ratio that compares the mass of a unit to its volume. The unit for density is g/ cm3 or kg/m3.
Density = mass ÷ volume
or Density = Mass
Volume

26. Temperature Conversions
Temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter. The units for this are oC and Kelvin (K). Note that there is no degree symbol for Kelvin.

27. Heat is a measurement of the total kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter. The units for this are the calorie (cal) and the Joule (J).

28. The following equation can be used to convert temperatures from Celsius (t) to Kelvin (T) scales:
T(K) = t(oC)
You are simply adding to your Celsius temperature.
Example: Convert oC to the Kelvin scale.
T(K) = oC = b

29. Subtracting allows conversion of a Kelvin temperature to a temperature on the Celsius scale. The equation is:
t(oC) = T(K)
You are simply subtracting from your Kelvin temperature.

30. You are simply subtracting 273.15 from your Kelvin temperature.
Convert the following from the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale.
1. –200 oC 2. –100 oC 3. –50 oC
oC oC oC

41. Using your calculator to perform math operations with scientific notation
A calculator can make math operations with scientific notation much easier.

42. Using your calculator to perform math operations with scientific notation
A calculator can make math operations with scientific notation much easier. To add
6.02 x 10-2 and 3.01 x 10-3, simply type the following:
6.02 EXP +/ EXP +/  
The calculator should read –02. This means x 10-2.

43. Using your calculator to perform math operations with scientific notation
Calculators vary. Instead of EXP, some have EE. Instead of +/-, some have (-). Only use the +/- or (-) if the exponent is negative.

44.  It is also important to keep in mind that when the EXP button is hit, it is as though the button said “x 10 to the.” THERE IS NO NEED TO PRESS THE MULTIPLICATION BUTTON (unless the numbers in the problem are being multiplied together).

45. To multiply 6.02 x 10-2 and 3.01 x 10-3, simply type the following:
6.02 EXP +/ x EXP +/ =
 The calculator should read This means x If you are unsure, consult your teacher or the owner’s manual for the calculator.

47. Dimensional Analysis
Dimensional analysis is the algebraic process of changing from one system of units to another. A fraction, called a conversion factor, is used. These fractions are obtained from an equivalence between two units.

49. Dimensional Analysis
For example, consider the equality 1 in. = 2.54 cm. This equality yields two conversion factors which both equal one:

50. Dimensional Analysis
Note that the conversion factors above both equal one and that they are the inverse of one another. This enables you to convert between units in the equality. For example, to convert 5.08 cm to inches
5.08 cm x = 2.00 in

51. Dimensional Analysis For example, to convert 5.08 cm to inches
5.08 cm x = 2.00 in

52. USING DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS
You must develop the habit of including units with all measurements in calculations. Units are handled in calculations as any algebraic symbol:
Numbers added or subtracted must have the same units.

53. Representing Data Graphing
Circle Graph (pie chart)
Useful for showing parts of a fixed whole.

54. Dimensional Analysis (Conversions)
Units are multiplied as algebraic symbols. For example: 10 cm x 10 cm = 10 cm2
Units are cancelled in division if they are identical.
For example, 27 g ÷ 2.7 g/cm3 = 10 cm3. Otherwise, they are left unchanged. For example, 27 g/10. cm3 = 2.7 g/cm3.

56. Dimensional Analysis (Conversions)
Now use dimensional analysis to solve the following English to metric measurement conversion problems:
(Use the equivalencies in the box on the previous page for your conversion factors).
Remember to use units so that you can cancel the ones you don’t want in your answer and keep the ones that you do!

59. Accuracy and Precision
Accuracy refers to how close a measured value is to the accepted value.
Precision refers to how close a series of measurements are to one another.

64. Accuracy and Precision
Accuracy refers to how close a measured value is to the accepted value.
Precision refers to how close a series of measurements are to one another.

80. Significant Figures (Sig Figs)
Counting Significant Digits
Quantities in chemistry are of two types:
Exact numbers – These result from counting objects such as desks (there are 24 desks in this room), occur as defined values (there are 100 cm in 1 m), or as numbers in formulas (area of a right triangle = ½ B x H). They (24, 100, 1, and ½ for these examples) all have an infinite(∞) number of significant digits. B and H are measurements and do not have an infinite number of digits.

81. Inexact numbers – These are obtained from measurements and require judgment. Uncertainties exist in their values.

82. When making any measurement, always estimate one place past what is actually known. For example, if a meter stick has calibrations to the 0.1 cm, the measurement must be estimated to the 0.01 cm. When making a measurement with a digital readout, simply write down the measurement. The last digit is the estimated digit.

83. Significant digits are all digits in a number which are known with certainty plus one uncertain digit. The following rules can be used when determining the number of significant digits in a number:

84. The following rules can be used when determining the number of significant digits in a number:
EXAMPLE
SIG FIGS
1. All nonzero numbers are significant. g 5
All zeros between nonzero numbers
are significant. m 7
Zeros to the right of a nonzero digit but to the left of an understood decimal point are not significant unless shown by placing a decimal point at the end of the number. mL mL 2 6
All zeros to the right of a decimal point but to the left of a nonzero digit are NOT significant. mg 3
All zeros to the right of a decimal point and to the right of a nonzero digit are significant. dm

85. You can remember these rules or learn this very easy shortcut.
If the number contains a decimal point, draw an arrow starting at the left through all zeros and up to the 1st nonzero digit. The digits remaining are significant.
Try these:

86. If the quantity does not contain a decimal point, draw an arrow starting at the right through all zeroes up to the 1st nonzero digit. The digits remaining are significant.
Try these:

87. A good way to remember which side to start on is:
decimal point present, start at the Pacific
decimal point absent, start at the Atlantic

90. Rounding Rules
Calculators often give answers with too many significant digits. It is often necessary to round off the answers to the correct number of significant digits. The last significant digit that you want to retain should be rounded up if the digit immediately to the right of it is
(Each of the examples are being rounded to four sig digs):
