Chemistry Chapter 2 Measurements & Calculations
2.1 Scientific MethodPages 28-31 • Systematic method of study • Used to verify results of previous work
Observation • info received by senses recorded as data • Qualitative – verbal descriptions • Quantitative – descriptions that include number (measurements)
Hypothesis • educated guess • (possible solution)
Experiment • a set of controlled observations that test a hypothesis • Devised to test one variable at a time • Independent variable: variable that experimenter has control over • Dependent variable: changes in response to IV, change is measured • Constant: factor that is not allowed to change during the experiment • Control: a standard for comparison
Data Analysis • careful examination and review of all data for meaning
Conclusion • judgment based on observations • Hypothesis is true: • experiment is repeated • Hypothesis is not true: • experiment is revised or rejected
Model • representation used to help deal with abstract ideas and objects • Visual, mathematical, verbal
Theory • a broad explanation of some relationship supported by observations • Atomic theory • Kinetic molecular theory
Law • a rule of nature • (states relationship, does not explain) • Newton’s laws of motion • Law of conservation of matter • Law of conservation of energy • (early 1900’s, Einstein discovered that E=mc2. New law of conservation of mass-energy was proposed)
CH. 2.2 MEASUREMENT II. Units of Measurement (pages 33 - 39)
A. Number vs. Quantity • Quantity - number + unit UNITS MATTER!!

M V D = C. Derived Units • Combination of base units. • Volume (m3 or cm3) • length length length 1 cm3 = 1 mL 1 dm3 = 1 L • Density (kg/m3 or g/cm3) • mass per volume
D. Density Mass (g) Volume (cm3)
D. Density • An object has a volume of 825 cm3 and a density of 13.6 g/cm3. Find its mass. GIVEN: V = 825 cm3 D = 13.6 g/cm3 M = ? WORK: M = DV M = (13.6 g/cm3)(825cm3) M = 11,200 g
WORK: V = M D V = 25 g 0.87 g/mL D. Density • A liquid has a density of 0.87 g/mL. What volume is occupied by 25 g of the liquid? GIVEN: D = 0.87 g/mL V = ? M = 25 g V = 29 mL

B. Dimensional Analysis • The “Factor-Label” Method • Units, or “labels” are canceled, or “factored” out
B. Dimensional Analysis • Steps: 1. Identify starting & ending units. 2. Line up conversion factors so units cancel. 3. Multiply all top numbers & divide by each bottom number. 4. Check units & answer.
B. Dimensional Analysis • Lining up conversion factors: = 1 1 in = 2.54 cm 2.54 cm 2.54 cm 1 = 1 in = 2.54 cm 1 in 1 in
qt mL B. Dimensional Analysis • How many milliliters are in 1.00 quart of milk? 1 L 1.057 qt 1000 mL 1 L 1.00 qt = 946 mL
lb cm3 B. Dimensional Analysis • You have 1.5 pounds of gold. Find its volume in cm3 if the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3. 1 cm3 19.3 g 1 kg 2.2 lb 1000 g 1 kg 1.5 lb = 35 cm3
in3 L B. Dimensional Analysis • How many liters of water would fill a container that measures 75.0 in3? 1 L 1000 cm3 (2.54 cm)3 (1 in)3 75.0 in3 = .191 L

CH. 2 - MEASUREMENT I. Using Measurements (p. 44 - 57)
A. Accuracy vs. Precision • Accuracy - how close a measurement is to the accepted value • Precision - how close a series of measurements are to each other ACCURATE = CORRECT PRECISE = CONSISTENT
your value accepted value B. Percent Error • Indicates accuracy of a measurement
% error = 2.9 % B. Percent Error • A student determines the density of a substance to be 1.40 g/mL. Find the % error if the accepted value of the density is 1.36 g/mL.
C. Significant Figures • Indicate precision of a measurement. • Recording Sig Figs • Sig figs in a measurement include the known digits plus a final estimated digit 2.35 cm
