This document provides instructions and assignments for students in a chemistry class. It includes a list of materials needed for class today, instructions to update an online assignment log, and to turn in a completed assignment on "Learning in Chemistry and Life". The document then provides the assignment log for students to check off completed work. It outlines power point notes for students to complete on measurements and dealing with data in chemistry. The power point covers topics like units, the international system of units, prefixes, absolute zero, Celsius and Kelvin scales, quantitative science, accuracy vs precision, tools for measurement, variables in experiments, identifying patterns in graphs, and a review with questions. Homework includes finishing any past due work, completing a survey, and the

Measurement & Data

5. In order to communicate effectively scientists around
the world need to speak the same math language. This
is the acceptable measurement system in chemistry.
This system is known as SI, short for the French term
“Systeme Interantional d’unites”. This system is the
metric system and works in multiple of 10.
Are added to the base unit (gram, meter, liter)
CHANGE THE SIZE of the base measurement
Is called ABSOLUTE ZERO. This is the temperature at
which particles would actually stop moving. A type of
matter known as BOSE EINSTEIN CONDENSATES or
BEC’s, have been cooled to this state.
Kelvin and Celsius are the temperature units we will
use in chemistry. To convert Celsius to Kelvin you just
ADD 274.15 to whatever Celsius temperature you
measure.

6. Concerned with measurements which
analyze amounts (quantities) of matter.
There is no such thing as a “perfect”
measurement. This is due to the accuracy
and precision of the person making the
measurements
Quantitative
Science
Limitations
always exist in
science

7. A measurement that is CORRECT
A measurement that is the same every time it is taken;
precise measurements can be reproduced but is not exact.
significant figures is the number of digits believed to be
correct by the person doing the measuring. We will round
to the nearest 100th
this year.
Accuracy

Estimation Digit

8. TOOL Used to Measure Unit Label
Graduated Cylinder volume mL
Beaker volume mL
Flask volume mL
Meter Stick volume cm3

9. A factor in an experiment that can be tested
or changed to affect the outcome of the
experiment
Variable

10. The factor the experimenter decides to change or
controls; the cause of something; input
The factor that changes because of the independent
variable; effect; output

Label your graph
outline:

11. = both change in the same direction; produces a
graph with an upward trend
eg: a time increases the distance of the car travels also
increases
Identifying Patterns:
DIRECT relationship
between variables
Indirect or Inverse
relationship between
variables
=one variable increases while the other decreases;
produces a graph with a downward trend
eg: as the pressure increases the size of the balloon
decreased
