Scientific Notation
Technique Used to Express Very Large or Very Small Numbers
Based on Powers of 10To Compare Numbers Written in
Scientific Notation First Compare Exponents of 10 Then Compare Numbers

Writing Numbers in Scientific Notation1 Locate the Decimal Point2 Move the decimal point to the right of the
non-zero digit in the largest place The new number is now between 1 and 10
3 Multiply the new number by 10n where n is the number of places you moved the
decimal point4 Determine the sign on the exponent n
If the decimal point was moved left, n is + If the decimal point was moved right, n is – If the decimal point was not moved, n is 0

Writing Numbers in Standard Form
1 Determine the sign of n of 10n
If n is + the decimal point will move to the right If n is – the decimal point will move to the left
2 Determine the value of the exponent of 10 Tells the number of places to move the decimal
point3 Move the decimal point and rewrite the
number

Artist's conception of the lost Mars Climate Orbiter.
Lost because JPL in CA assumed that Lockheed Martin here in Denver used metric units.

Related Units in the Metric System
All units in the metric system are related to the fundamental unit by a power of 10
The power of 10 is indicated by a prefixThe prefixes are always the same,
regardless of the fundamental unit

About 39.37 in or about 3½ inches longer than a yard1 meter = one ten-millionth the distance from the North Pole to
the Equator = distance between marks on standard metal rod in a Paris vault = distance covered by a certain number of wavelengths of a special color of light =distance covered by light in a vacuum in a 1/299,792,458 of a second (approximately 3.3 nanoseconds).
Commonly use centimeters (cm) in a lab 1 m = 100 cm 1 cm = 0.01 m 1cm = 10 mm 1 inch = 2.54 cm (exactly)

Volume Measure of the amount of three-dimensional space
occupied by a substance SI unit = cubic meter (m3) Commonly measure solid volume in cubic centimeters
(cm3) 1 m3 = 106 cm3 1 cm3 = 10-6 m3 = 0.000001 m3
Commonly measure liquid or gas volume in milliliters (mL) 1 L is slightly larger than 1 quart 1 L = 10 dL = 1000 mL = 103 mL 1 mL = 0.001 L = 10-3 L 1 mL = 1 cm3 REALLY IMPORTANT!

Mass
Measure of the amount of matter present in an object SI unit = kilogram (kg) Commonly measure mass in grams (g) or milligrams
(mg) 1 kg = 2.2046 pounds, 1 lbs. = 453.59 g 1 kg = 1000 g = 1x103 g, 1 g = 1000 mg = 1x103 mg 1 g = 0.001 kg = 1x10-3 kg, 1 mg = 0.001 g = 1x10-3 g

Uncertainty in Measured Numbers
A measurement always has some amount of uncertainty
Uncertainty comes from limitations of the techniques used for comparison
To understand how reliable a measurement is, we need to understand the limitations of the measurement
![Page 26: 1 Measurements and Calculations Chapter 2. A gas pump measures the amount of gasoline delivered](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3c5503460f94c5b7ea/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Reporting Measurements
To indicate the uncertainty of a single measurement scientists use a system called significant figures (digits)
The last digit written in a measurement is the number that is considered to be uncertain (estimated)
Unless stated otherwise, the uncertainty in the last digit is ±1
![Page 27: 1 Measurements and Calculations Chapter 2. A gas pump measures the amount of gasoline delivered](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3c5503460f94c5b7ea/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Rules for Counting Significant Figures
Nonzero integers are always significant Zeros
Leading zeros never count as significant figures (Example of leading zeros 0.012, so two sig. figs)
Captive zeros are always significant(Example of captive zero 102, so three sig. figs.)
Trailing zeros are significant if the number has a decimal point (Example of trailing zeros significant, 25.0, this number has three sig.figs.)(Example of trailing zero not significant, 250, this number has two sig. figs)
Remember Never, Always, If
![Page 29: 1 Measurements and Calculations Chapter 2. A gas pump measures the amount of gasoline delivered](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3c5503460f94c5b7ea/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Exact NumbersExact Numbers are numbers known with
certainty Unlimited number of significant figuresThey are either
counting numbersFor example, number of sides on a square
or defined (they are not measurements)100 cm = 1 m, 12 in = 1 ft, 1 in = 2.54 cm1 kg = 1000 g, 1 LB = 16 oz1000 mL = 1 L; 1 gal = 4 qts.1 minute = 60 seconds
![Page 30: 1 Measurements and Calculations Chapter 2. A gas pump measures the amount of gasoline delivered](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3c5503460f94c5b7ea/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Adding/Subtracting Numbers with Significant Figures
Result is limited by the number with the smallest number of significant decimal places (or said another way, the largest estimation)
Find last significant figure in each measurement Find which one is “left-most” Round answer to the same decimal place
450 mL + 27.5 mL = 480 mLprecise to 10’s place precise to 0.1’s place precise to 10’s place
Why isn’t it 477.5?
![Page 31: 1 Measurements and Calculations Chapter 2. A gas pump measures the amount of gasoline delivered](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3c5503460f94c5b7ea/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Multiplication/Division with Significant Figures Result has the same number of significant
figures as the measurement with the smallest number of significant figures
Count the number of significant figures in each measurement
Round the result so it has the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the smallest number of significant figures
4.5 cm x 0.200 cm = 0.90 cm2
2 sig figs 3 sig figs 2 sig figs
![Page 32: 1 Measurements and Calculations Chapter 2. A gas pump measures the amount of gasoline delivered](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3c5503460f94c5b7ea/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Calculations with Significant Figures
Calculators/computers do not know about significant figures!!! You have to learn to be the boss!
Exact numbers do not affect the number of significant figures in an answer
Answers to calculations must be rounded to the proper number of significant figures round at the very end of the calculation
![Page 33: 1 Measurements and Calculations Chapter 2. A gas pump measures the amount of gasoline delivered](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3c5503460f94c5b7ea/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
Rules for Rounding Off
If the digit to be removed• is less than 5, the preceding digit stays the same• is equal to or greater than 5, the preceding digit
is increased by 1 In a series of calculations, carry the extra
digits to the final result (keep track of where rounding should occur by placing a line above the last digit that should be retained in each step) and then round off at the end
Don’t forget to add place-holding zeros if necessary to keep value the same!!

Problem Solving and Dimensional Analysis
Many problems in chemistry involve using equivalence statements to convert one unit of measurement to another
Conversion factors are relationships between two units May be exact or measured Both parts of the conversion factor should have the
same number of significant figures Conversion factors generated from equivalence
statements e.g. 1 inch = 2.54 cm can give or
in1cm54.2
