Types of Experimental DataTypes of Experimental Data

Key Concept 1 – Qualitative data deals with descriptions

Key Concept 2 – Quantitative data deals with numbers

Qualitative:-the frame is yellow-the frame looks old-the inside looks

reflective

Quantitative:-the frame measures

4” x 6”-the frame weighs

3lbs-the frame costs $15

Accuracy vs. PrecisionAccuracy vs. Precision

Key Concept 3 – Accuracy refers to how close a measured value is to an accepted value

Key Concept 4 – Precision refers to how close a series of measurements are to one another

ErrorError

Error is defined as the difference between the experimental value and an accepted value.

The error equation is: error = experimental value – accepted value.

Percent error expresses error as a percentage of the accepted value.

SI unitsSI units

Système Internationale d'Unités (SI) is an internationally agreed upon system of measurements.

Key Concept 1: base unit is a defined unit in a system of measurement that is based on an object or event in the physical world, and is independent of other units.

Measured NumbersMeasured Numbers

Do you see why Measured Numbers have error…you have to make that guess!

All but one of the significant figures are known with certainty. The last significant figure is only the best possible estimate.

To indicate the precision of a measurement, the value recorded should use all the digits known with certainty.

Rule 1: Nonzero numbers are always significant.

Rule 2: Zeros between nonzero numbers are always significant.

Rule 3: All final zeros to the right of the decimal are significant.

Rule 4: Placeholder zeros are not significant. To remove placeholder zeros, rewrite the number in scientific notation.

KC 1: Scientific notation can be used to express any number as a number between 1 and 10 (the coefficient) multiplied by 10 raised to a power (the exponent).

Count the number of places the decimal point must be moved to give a coefficient between 1 and 10

The number of places moved equals the value of the exponent

The exponent is positive when the decimal moves to the left and negative when the decimal moves to the right.

800 = 8.0 x 102

0.0000343 = 3.43 x 10–5

The number of places moved equals the value of the exponent

The exponent is positive when the decimal moves to the left and negative when the decimal moves to the right.
