1 I II III I. Using Measurements MEASUREMENT

2 A. Accuracy vs. Precision  Accuracy - how close a measurement is to the accepted value  Precision - how close a series of measurements are to each other ACCURATE = CORRECT PRECISE = CONSISTENT

3 B. Percent Error  Indicates accuracy of a measurement your value accepted value

4 B. Percent Error  A student determines the density of a substance to be 1.40 g/mL. Find the % error if the accepted value of the density is 1.36 g/mL. % error = 2.9 %

5 C. Significant Figures  Indicate precision of a measurement.  Recording Sig Figs  Sig figs in a measurement include the known digits plus a final estimated digit 2.35 cm

6 C. Significant Figures  Counting Sig Figs  Count all numbers EXCEPT:  Leading zeros -- 0.0025  Trailing zeros without a decimal point -- 2,500  Captive zeros– 20004  Always count

8 C. Significant Figures  Calculating with Sig Figs  Multiply/Divide - The # with the fewest sig figs determines the # of sig figs in the answer. (13.91g/cm 3 )(23.3cm 3 ) = 324.103g 324 g 4 SF3 SF

9 C. Significant Figures  Calculating with Sig Figs (con’t)  Add/Subtract - The # with the lowest decimal value determines the place of the last sig fig in the answer. 3.75 mL + 4.1 mL 7.85 mL 224 g + 130 g 354 g  7.9 mL  350 g 3.75 mL + 4.1 mL 7.85 mL 224 g + 130 g 354 g

10 C. Significant Figures  Calculating with Sig Figs (con’t)  Exact Numbers do not limit the # of sig figs in the answer.  Counting numbers: 12 students  Exact conversions: 1 m = 100 cm  “1” in any conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm

11 C. Significant Figures 5. (15.30 g) ÷ (6.4 mL) Practice Problems = 2.390625 g/mL  18.1 g 6. 18.9g - 0.84 g 18.06 g 4 SF2 SF  2.4 g/mL 2 SF

12 D. Scientific Notation  Converting into Sci. Notation:  Move decimal until there’s 1 digit to its left. Places moved = exponent.  Large # (>1)  positive exponent Small # (<1)  negative exponent  Only include sig figs. 65,000 kg  6.5 × 10 4 kg

19 C. Density  An object has a volume of 825 cm 3 and a density of 13.6 g/cm 3. Find its mass. GIVEN: V = 825 cm 3 D = 13.6 g/cm 3 M = ? WORK : M = DV M = (13.6 g/cm 3 )(825cm 3 ) M = 11,200 g

20 C. Density  A liquid has a density of 0.87 g/mL. What volume is occupied by 25 g of the liquid? GIVEN: D = 0.87 g/mL V = ? M = 25 g WORK : V = M D V = 25 g 0.87 g/mL V = 29 mL

27 B. Dimensional Analysis  The “Factor-Label” Method  Units, or “labels” are canceled, or “factored” out

28 B. Dimensional Analysis  Steps: 1. Identify starting & ending units. 2. Line up conversion factors so units cancel. 3. Multiply all top numbers & divide by each bottom number. 4. Check units & answer.

29 B. Converting SI Units with Dimensional Analysis  Convert 10 liters to centiliters.  Identify starting and ending points  Starting point 10 liters, ending point centiliters  Draw a T chart, you can add boxes as you go  Line up conversion factors  Then cancel the unit top and bottom  Multiply across, divide top by the bottom. 10 liters 1 liter 100 cl End Point = 1000 cl or 1 X 10 3 cl

30  How many milligrams are in 50 kilograms?  Identify starting and ending points  Start at 50 kg; end at mg  Draw a T chart, you can add boxes as you go  Line up conversion factors  Then cancel the unit top and bottom  Multiply across, divide top by the bottom 50 kg 1 kg 1000 g 1 g 1000 mg End Point = 50,000,000 mg or 5 X 10 7 mg B.
