Fence method Objective: TLW use 2-step fence method to change prefixes
Notes • 2-step fence
Homework • Additional Practice Worksheet • Must show all work. Can use separate piece of paper if necessary
WARM-UP 9/11 • Spend five minutes working/checking answers from yesterdays homework. • Ask a neighbor for help, if you’re stuck
Objective • TLW describe and count the number of significant figures in a given number
Work time • You have another 10 minutes to work on Additional Practice worksheet • If you have questions this is a great time to get some extra help! • When finished answer the last two questions in your notes. We will do rewriting with SI prefixes together.
Converting to SI prefixes • Open your notes to the last page.
Warm-up 9-12-13 • Convert 3 hr and 15min into seconds • The Detroit String Quartet played Brahms last night. Brahms lost.– Bennett Cerf
Objective • TLW describe and count the number of significant figures
Significant Figures • The number of significant figures in a result is simply the number of figures that are known with some degree of reliability. The number 13.2 is said to have 3 significant figures. The number 13.20 is said to have 4 significant figures.
Rules • (1) All nonzero digits are significant • (2) Zeroes between nonzero digits are significant • (3) Leading zeros to the left of the first nonzero digits are not significant; such zeroes merely indicate the position of the decimal point • (4) Trailing zeroes that are also to the right of a decimal point in a number are significant • (5) When a number ends in zeroes that are not to the right of a decimal point, the zeroes are not necessarily significant
Practice • 1.234 g • 1002 kg • 0.001 oC • 0.012 g • 0.0230 mL • 0.20 g • 50,600 calories
Homework • Pg. 28 #11a-f, 16, 18, 19 • Show all work • Write neat and clear
Warm-up • How many significant figures are in the following? • 2135.45 g • 95648.000 mV • 8230.251 cF • 0.00002125 kL • 0813.54 Mm • Objective: TLW describe and discuss the Scientific Method.
Homework • We need to review the scientific method. • Pg. 27 #2 and 4 • Quiz tomorrow over Significant Figures and Fence Method. • Test early next week Tuesday or Wednesday
Warm-up 9/14 • Spend five minutes studying for the quiz. Look over the fence method. • If you feel confident ask a neighbor to quiz you or practice old problems. • Objective: Check for understanding of fence method
Quiz • Box in your final answer! (Thank you ) • Please show all work. • When you are done turn over your quiz and wait quietly for everyone else to finish
Scientific Method- 4 steps • Make observations and collect data that lead to a question. • Formulate and objectively test hypotheses by experiments • Interpret results, and revise the hypothesis if necessary • State conclusions in a form that can be evalulated by others.
Homework • Pg. 27 #1 and 2 • This weekend you need to start reviewing the outline and then come in with a question or two that you have about the chapter
Warm-up • What are you excited for this week? • Name the number of significant figures in the following • 120.012 g • 10.0230 mL • 0.20 g • 50,600 calories • Objective: TLW identify the number significant figures after completing operations (+,-,*,/)
Notes • Given that addition and subtraction take place in columns, round the final answer to the first column from the left containing an estimated digit • Multiplication or division the final answer has the same number of significant figures as the measurement having the smallest number of significant figures
Practice • 97.3 + 5.85 = • 123 * 5.35 =
