Scientific Notation
• Condensed form of writing large or small numbers• When a given number is written as the product of 2 numbers• M x 10n
M must be:• greater than or equal to 1 • less than 10
n must be:• whole number • positive or negative
![Page 4: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Find M by moving the decimal point over in the original number to the left or right so that only one non-zero number is to the left of the decimal.

Accuracy & Precision
‘How close you are really counts!’
![Page 12: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Accuracy• Accuracy – a measure of how close a
measurement comes to the actual or true value of what is measured
To evaluate… the measured
value must be compared
to the correct value
![Page 13: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Precision
• Precision – a measure of how close a series of measurements are to one another
To evaluate… you must compare the values of 2 or more repeated measurements
![Page 14: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Accuracy vs. Precision
![Page 15: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Errors are Unavoidable
• Measuring instruments have limitations
• Hence, there will always be errors in measurement.
![Page 16: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Not All Errors are Equal• Consider the following two errors:• You fly from NY to San Francisco
• Your plane is blown off course by 3cm
• You are an eye surgeon
• Your scalpel misses the mark by 3cm
The errors sound equal… but are they?
![Page 17: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Absolute Error• The error in each of the previous examples is 3cm• But the error in each is not equivalent!• This type of error is the absolute error.
Absolute error = | measured value – accepted value |
Accepted value is the most probable value or the value based on references
Only the size of the error matters, not the sign
![Page 18: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Significance of an Error• The absolute error tells you how far you are from
the accepted value• It does not tell you how significant the error is.
o Being 3cm off course on a trip to San Francisco is insignificant because the city of San Francisco is very large.
o Being 3cm off if you are an eye surgeon means your operating on the wrong eye!
• It is necessary to compare the size of the error to the size of what is being measured to understand the significance of the error.
![Page 19: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Percentage Error
• The percentage error compares the absolute error to the size of what is being measured.
% error = |measured value – accepted value| x 100%
accepted value
![Page 20: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Example: Measuring the boiling point of H2O
Thermometer reads – 99.1OCYou know it should read – 100OC
Error = measured value – accepted value
% error = |error| x 100% accepted value
Sample Problem
![Page 21: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
% error = |99.1oC – 100.0oC| x 100%
100oC
= 0.9o x 100%
100o
= 0.009 x 100%
= 0.9%

Significant Figures• Used as a way to express which numbers
are known with certainty and which are estimated
![Page 23: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What are significant figures?
Significant Figures –
all the digits that are known, plus
a last digit that is estimated
![Page 24: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Rules1) All digits 1-9 are significant Example: 129
2) Embedded zeros between significant digits are always significant Example: 5,007
3) Trailing zeros in a number are significant only if the number contains a decimal point Example: 100.0
3600
3 sig figs
4 sig figs
4 sig figs
2 sig figs
![Page 25: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
4) Leading zeros at the beginning of a number are never significant
Example: 0.0025
5) Zeros following a decimal significant
figure are always significant
Example: 0.000470
0.47000
6) Exceptions to the rule are numbers with an
unlimited number of sig figs
Example = Counting – 25 students
Exact quantities – 1hr = 60min, 100cm = 1m
2 sig figs
3 sig figs
5 sig figs

Calculations Using Significant Figures
• Rounding1st determine the number of sig figs
Then, count from the left, & round
If the digit < 5, the value remains the same.
If the digit is ≥ 5, the value of the last sig fig is increased by 1.
![Page 28: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Try your hand at rounding…
Round each measurement to 3 sig figs.
87.073 meters = 4.3621 x 108 meters = 0.01552 meter = 9009 meters = 1.7777 x 10-3 meter = 629.55 meters =
87.1m
0.0155m or 1.55 x 10-2m

Why do some objects float in water while others sink?
• Need to know the ratio of the mass of an object to it’s volume
• Pure H2O at 4oC = 1.000g/cm3
• If an object has a lower ratio it will float
• If an object has a greater ratio it will sink
![Page 52: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Density• The ratio of an object’s mass to it’s volume
Density = mass volume
Example: A 10.0cm3 piece of lead has a mass of 114g. What is the density of lead?
114g = 10.0cm3
11.4g/cm3

Recall…
What type of property is density?
Does the density of a material change in relation to the sample size?
NO… density is an Intensive property
it depends only on the composition of
the material
![Page 54: Chapter 3 Scientific Measurement Measurement In chemistry, #’s are either very small or very large 1 gram of hydrogen = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56649f135503460f94c27d5b/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
What might affect a substance’s density?
• Temperature The volume of most substances ↑ withan ↑ in
temperature the mass remains the same
If the volume increases… what affect does it have on a substance’s density?
The density decreases
*Exception –Water’s volume ↑ with a ↓ in temperatureIts density decreases & ice floats
H2O

Calculating Density
What is the volume of a pure silver coin that has a mass of 14g, and a density of 10.5g/cm3?
D = 10.5g/cm3
M = 14gV = ?
