1-7 Units of Measurement

A)Mass & Weight

1.Difference?

2.Unit (mass)

B)Volume:1 L = ______mL = ______dm31 mL = _____ cm3

1-8 Use of Numbers – Significant figures(try the links for practice problems, then complete the notes) This is a very useful website for this – go to ALL the sections and be sure you understand them – this entire section is here on-line

A)Significant Figures in Measurements (Fig 1-15)

1.In measurements, you will need ______estimated digit(s)

2.So the reading will be based on the smallest increment + one estimated digit (smallest increment = smallest measurement between two adjacent lines/marks)

3.Example:

1 / 2 cm

Smallest increment: 0.1 cm

So: reading for the above arrow 1.52 cm (or 1.53 cm) the 2 is the estimated digit

Note: if the measurement device has a “readout” (for instance, the balances), record the measurement AS GIVEN by the device

B)Counting sig figs

1.Two types of numbers:

exact: either counting numbers (3 dogs, 75 eggs) or (many) conversion factors (100 cm = 1 m) – these have ______significant figures

2.Measurements:

All nonzero digits ______significant

189.7 (___ sf) 1.276535 (__ sf)

All zeros betweennonzero digits ______significant

1000.07 (___sf) 104.2 (___sf)

Zeros before the first nonzero digit ______significant

0.0027 (___sf) 0.75 (___sf)

Zeros afterthe last nonzero digit ______significant if a decimalis present

Zeros afterthe last nonzero digit ______significant if a decimalis not present

122.70 (__sf) 1240 (___sf)

Note: If the number is in scientific notation – use the same rules as ______

C)Rounding (note: not the way you learn in elementary school!)Not In Book (NIB)

1.Use the digit just after the final decimal place you want to keep

2.If that digit is

0-4 – the last digit ______

6-9 – the last digit ______

5 - the last digit ______

3.Examples: Round to the hundredths place

0.324 = ______0.325 = ______0.399 = ______

0.326 = ______0.335 = ______0.395 = ______

D)Calculations:

1.General: Do all calculations, keeping track of the significant figures as you go, but do not round until the end

2.Note: the basis for this method is that you cannot have more than one estimated digit.

3.Addition/Subtraction

rule:

Examples:

(1)0.301 + 1.44 + 0.2 = 1.941 = ______

(2)144.60 + 0.3334 + 10.7865 = 155.7199 = ______

4.Multiplication/Division

rule:

Examples:

(1)0.301 x 1.44 x 0.2 = 0.086688 = ______

(2)144.60 x 0.3334 x 10.7865 = 520.013282 = ______

5.Mixed example: If you do an experiment, and the theoretical value is 5.000, and your experimental result is 5.020, what is your percent error?

1-9 The Unit Factor (Dimensional Analysis) – AKA Factor Label

A)What is a “unit factor”?

B)Method:

1.CAUTION!!! You must have units on all numbers, even intermediates!

2.Know the unit you have for your initial value

3.Use unit factors to replace the units you don’t want with units you do want

4.Check that the units cancel!!!

5.Sig figs on the answer are generally what you start with!

C)Examples

1.convert 3.0 ft to inches

2.convert 2.55 miles to inches (1 mile = 5280 ft.)

3.convert 0.75 L to cm3

4.convert 15 cm3 to in3

1-10 Percentage

A)Percentage can be used as a conversion factor

B)Percentage can be “interpreted” several different ways:

C)Percentage should be specified (by mass, by volume, etc)

1-11 Density and Specific Gravity

A)Density =

B)Density is

intensive, and frequently used to help identify a substance

a function of temperature

a conversion between ______and ______

C)Specific gravity is

D)Note: density of water at 3.98 ºC = 1.000 g/mL

1-12 Heat and Temperature

A)Temperature is:A measure of the kinetic energy of a substance

B)Conversion formulas:

1.Between T (in K) and T (in °C): ______

2.Between T (in °C) and T (in °F): ______

C)Temperature scales:

ºF / ºC / K
Normal bp of water
“Normal” body temperature / 98.6
“Room temperature” / 70
Normal mp of water

1-13 Heat Transfer and the Measurement of Heat we will do this section together – skip for now

A)Units: SI: Joules (J), also use calorie

B)Calorie definition:

the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 Co

1 calorie = 4.184 JoulesEXACT!

note: food calories: Calories = 1000 calories = 1 kcal

1 g protein = 4 Cal, 1 g carbohydrate = 4 Cal, 1 g fat = 9 Cal

C)Calorimetry - measurement of the heat released or absorbed in a process (physical or chemical change)

Equation: q = m CpT, where

p. 1

q = heat

Cp = specific heat

m = mass

T = change in temperature

p. 1

..For water:Cp = 1.000 cal/g°C or 4.184 J/g°C for water

D)Example: do ex. 1-19

p. 1
