• Density is an INTENSIVEINTENSIVE propertyproperty of matter.

- does NOT depend on quantity of matter.

-Examples: color, melting point, boiling point, odor, density

• DIFFERENT THAN EXTENSIVE propertiesEXTENSIVE properties

- depends on quantity of matter.- mass, volume, length

Significant figures: Rules for zeros

Leading zeros are not significant.

Captive zeros are significant.

Trailing zeros are significant, only IF there is a decimal point somewhere in the number.

Significant Figures

Calculating with Sig Figs (con’t)

Exact Numbers do not limit the # of sig figs in the answer.Counting numbers: 12 studentsExact conversions: 1 m = 100 cm


Significant Figures

Calculating with Sig Figs

Multiply/Divide - The # with the fewest sig figs determines the # of sig figs in the answer.
