Scientific Notation• A shorthand method of expressing large and
small numbers using exponents.• Expresses values as a multiple of 10 to a
specific power. Must use the correct form when expressing a number in sci not.
M x 10n
M = any number between 1 & 10n = any integer (including 0)
• Example: 12,480,000 → 1.248 x 107
0.0000237 → 2.37 x 10-5

Accuracy vs. Precision
• Accuracy refers to how close a measurement is to the true or actual value.
• Precision refers to how close a series of measurements are to one another.
![Page 9: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Reporting Measurements
• To indicate the uncertainty of a single measurement scientists use a system called significant figures
• Our data can only be as precise as the least precise measuring tool/instrument
![Page 10: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
![Page 11: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Rules for Counting Significant Figures
1. Nonzero integers are always significant
Ex. 46.3 m 3 sig figs
6.295 g 4 sig. figs
2. ‘0’ between nonzero digits are significant.
Ex. 40.7 L 3 sig. figs.
87009 km 5 sig figs
![Page 12: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Rules Continued
3. ‘0’ in front of nonzero digits (leading zeros) are never significant.
Ex. 0.009587 m 4 sig. figs. 0.0009 kg 1 sig. fig.
Neither are zeroes at the end of a numberEx. 1300 g = 2 sig figs
*The zeroes in these cases are ‘placeholders’; they are used for spacing.
![Page 13: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Rules Continued
4. Zeros at the end of a number and to the right of a decimal are significant.
Ex. 85.00 4 sig. figs. 9.070000000 10 sig. figs.
5. A decimal point placed after zeros indicates that the zeros are significant.
Ex. 2000 1 sig. fig 2000. 4 sig. figs.
![Page 14: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Rules Continued
• Do NOT count sig. figs. in the following numbers:
1. Counting numbers
2. Constants which are defined values (1 atm)
3. Conversion factors which are defined relationships (1km = 1000m)
![Page 15: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Calculations with Significant Figures
• Answers to calculations must be rounded to the proper number of significant figures at the end of the calculation.
![Page 16: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Adding/Subtracting Numbers with Significant Figures
• When adding/subtracting, look for the LEAST PRECISE measurement to determine the correct number of sig. figs.
• Round answer to the same decimal place
Ex. 54 g + 108.6 g + .0004 g = 163 g
55.24 mL – 2.1 mL = 53.1 mL
![Page 17: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Multiplication/Division with 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 x 0.200 = 2 sf 3 sf
0.90
4.13 x 104 ÷ 0.07000 = 590000= 5.90 x 105
Correct?

How HOT are you??
• Heat (energy) cannot be measured directly.
• We can measure heat transfer by change in temperature.
• We define temperature as the average kinetic energy of a system.movement within a substance
• Measure temperature with a thermometer.

Temperature Scales• Fahrenheit Scale, °F
Relative scale
• Celsius Scale, °CRelative scaleWater’s freezing point = 0°C, boiling point = 100°C
• Kelvin Scale, KAbsolute scaleWater’s freezing point = 273 K, boiling point = 373 K
• oC = K - 273 K = oC + 273

Graphing
1. Determine the variables.- Independent x-axis- Dependent y-axis
2. Determine the range of values.
3. Utilize all of 1 side of the graph paper.- usually start at ‘0’ but NOT ALWAYS
4. Makes scales easy & keep consistent
![Page 21: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Graphing
5. Label both axes (include unit).
- draw axes with a straight edge
6. Give your graph an appropriate title.
- dependent vs. independent
7. Titles, axes, & labels must be in INK!
8. Plot data with ‘x’ not ‘•’ (may be in pencil)
9. Draw “best-fit” line (or curve) through your data
![Page 22: Measurement and Calculation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813553550346895d9cb4da/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Graphing
10. You may be asked to use your graph to
draw conclusions & make predictions.
• Three examples would include:Interpolation – within the limits of the dataExtrapolation – beyond the limits of the dataSlope Determination (show work on graph)

Temperature of Water Graph• Construct a graph of the data that was collected.
oF on the y-axis oC on the x-axis
• Draw best-fit line through data points.• Calculate the slope of the line and show your
calculations on the graph.• Use the slope and the y-intercept to write the
equation of the line (y = mx + b). What does this equation represent?
• What is the 0C that is equivalent to 0oF (determine this by using the graph itself)? What graphing technique did you use to determine this?

Dimensional Analysis
• A simple mathematical approach to converting between units.
• Involves conversion factors (fractions).• Follows simple math functions (x/÷)• We can use conversion factors for metric conversions
as well as other conversions.• Dim. analysis can be used to convert from 1 unit to
another.One step or several steps.
• Each conversion factor represents a math function – treat it as such.

Dimensional Analysis
• Examples:
1. What is the volume of a 250-mL beaker in L?
2. What is your weight in g?
3. How many kg are equivalent to 4 lbs?
4. How many mg are in .500 lbs?
5. How many lbs are equivalent to 4.00 kg?

Density• Density is a property of matter representing the mass
per unit volume• For equal volumes, denser object has larger mass• For equal masses, denser object has small volume• Solids = g/cm3
1 cm3 = 1 mL• Liquids = g/mL• Gases = g/L
1L = 1 dm3
• Volume of a solid can be determined by water displacement
