Term | Definition |
Chemistry | study of composition, structure, properties, and reactions of matter |
Matter | all substances that make up our world--anything that has mass and occupies space and is either pure substances or mixtures |
Chemicals | substances that have the same composition and properties wherever found |
Scientific Method | set of general principles that help to describe how scientists think |
Steps of the Scientific Method | Make Observations Propose a Hypothesis Conduct Experiments Form a Conclusion |
What are the two parts of the scientific notation? | coefficient and power of 10 |
Units of Measurement in Metric | length: m volume: L mass: g Temp: Celsius Time: s |
Units of Measurement in SI | length: m volume: m^3 mass: kg Temp: K time: s |
1m | 100 cm |
1L | 1000mL |
1kg | 1000g |
Measured Numbers | numbers obtained when you measure a quantity such as your height, weight, or temperature -observe the numerical values of marked lines -estimate value of the numbers between marks -use the estimated number as the final number in your measured numbered |
Significant Figures | -used to represent the amount of error associated w a measurement -all nonzero digits and zeros between digits -zeros at the end of a decimal number |
Exact Numbers | are in definitions that compare two units in the same measuring system |
Multiplication and Division---Sig Figs | final answer is written so that it has the same number of sig figs as the measurement w the fewest sig figs |
Adding and Subtracting--Sig Figs | final answer is written so that it has the same number of DECIMAL places as the measurement w the fewest decimal places |
Equalities | use two different units to describe the same measured amount |
