2. U1D6: Rounding with Precision and Sig Figs
Agenda:
Review of Precision/Sig Figs
Sig Fig Checkpoint
I will be able to round my answers to the correct precision or significant figures!
Practice!!!!!!

3. Reminders:
ALL Lab safety paperwork MUST be in if you are to participate the the lab Day 7.

4. Sig Fig Review Practice#2 answers

5. 3) Circle the place where the precision is and underline the significant figures in the measurements below. Write the number of significant figures in the measurement to the right of each measurement.

I know how to round to the correct precision/sig figs Tonight: 1.Finish Rounding Practice (#3) 2.Pre-Lab: Thickness and Density of Al Foil

12. Number Does it have a decimal? Yes No
Precision is farthest # on right
Precision is right most non-zero or a zero w/a line over it
Count from the left most non-zero to the precision

13. What is precision?
Is 7.0 cm the same thing as 7.00 cm?

14. Is 7.0 cm the same thing as 7.00 cm?
No, and here is why;
Think back to the measurement lab. The precision of your measurement depended on the tool you were using VS
7.00 cm
7.0 cm VS

15. Why is precision important?
Comes into play when you need to do math
For example;
If you added 11 km and .003 km you may be tempted to put km as the answer
THIS WOULD BE WRONG!
Like a chain that is only as strong as its weakest link……

16. Answers need to be rounded!
Addition and Subtraction: (ASP)
Number with the Least precision
Multiplication and Division: (MDS)
Lowest Number of Sig Figs

17. Why?
11km is only precise to the kilometer. It could actually be km (or some other measurement) but the instruments could not read that precise.
11.???????, don’t know what those numbers are!
11.??????? Km km
11.??????? km

18. 11km km
Least precise place is the ones place, so we will round to the ones.
11 km km = km  11 km
Remember:
Adding and subtracting: unit must be the same: cm + cm = cm

19. Why?
If you put your answer as km you are saying that all your measurements were precise to the thousandths place (WHICH THEY WEREN’T!)

20. What if we multiply/divide?
Remember:
Multiplying and dividing :you can mix units
mL * mL = mL2
g ÷ mL = g/mL
g/mL * mL = g

21. Practice 20.1 g + 60.33 g = 80.43 g After rounding80.4 g
170 ml ml = ml
after rounding150 ml
17 g/ml x 5ml = 85 g
after rounding90 g
2134 g / ml = g/ml
rounding121 g/ml
