1 kg = ____ lbs | __ kg = 2.20461 lbs | 1 lb = ____ g | _ lb = 453.59g |
A digit that must be estimated is... | Uncertain | A measurement always has... | Some degree of uncertainty |
How many uncertain digits do you report in a measurement? | one. the first uncertain digit | 1 - 9 integers (non zero) _____ count as significant figures | Always |
3456 has how many sig figs? | 4 sig figs (significant figures) | Leading zeros are | zeros that come before nonzero digits |
Leading Zeros ____ count as significant figures | Never | 0.048 has... | 2 sig figs |
Captive zeros | zeros trapped between nonzero digits | Captive Zeros ____ count as significant figures | Always |
16.07 has | 4 sig figs | Trailing zeros | come after nonzero digits |
Trailing zeros are only significant if... | The number contains a decimal point | 9.300 has | 4 sig figs |
150 has | 2 sig figs | Exact numbers (conversion factors) have ____ of significant figures | Infinite number of sig figs |
1 in = ___ cm | _ in = 2.54 cm | 300. is written how in scientific notation and has how many significant figures? | 3.00 x 10^2 and contains 3 sig figs |
Two advantages of Exponential notation is | Number of significant figures are indicated easily and fewer zeros are needed | 5.64 rounds to? | 5.6 |
5.68 rounds to... | 5.7 | 3.861 rounded to three digits is? | 3.86 |
During a calculation, when do you round? | You round at the end, when you are done calculating | In multiplication or division, what determines the number of significant figures in the answer? | The measurement with the smallest number of significant figures |
