Temperature Scientifically speaking … The definition of temperature: Temperature is measure of average kinetic energy of particles in system
Absolute Zero • Zero on the Kelvin scale: point at which all matter is said to stop moving

Conversion formulas How can we convert from one temperature scale to another? K = °C + 273 (more precisely 273.15) °C = K – 273 [F = (9/5 °C) + 32]
accepted value use absolute value – answer always positive Percent Error measured value – accepted value x100%
Student A (g/cm3) Student B (g/cm3) Student C (g/cm3) Trial 1 1.54 1.40 1.70 Trial 2 1.60 1.68 1.69 Trial 3 1.57 1.45 1.71 Data table Students were asked to find the density of sucrose [Sucrose has a density of 1.59 g/cm3]
Advantage of % Error • Makes it easier to compare data, especially if comparing data from different trials
Density Review M D V
Looking at this graph again, what is the density of pyrite? HINT: SLOPEWhat is this graph missing?
Scientific Notation • The number is written as the product of two other numbers: • A number between 1 and 10 (not 10) • and • A power of 10
Converting conventional to scientific notation For numbers 1, the exponent will be positive. Count how many places the decimal is moved. 329 3.29 X 102
Converting conventional to scientific notation For numbers between 0 and 1, the exponent will be negative. Count how many places the decimal is moved. 0.00045 4.5 X 10-4
Converting scientific to conventional notation If the exponent is positive, the number 1, so move the decimal point right. 3.784 X 105 378400
Converting scientific to conventional notation If the exponent is negative, the number is between 0 and 1 so move the decimal point to the left. 2.75 X 10-3 0.00275
