Precision |
The exactness of a value
the more significant digits that can be recorded the more precise
Precision is also related to the closeness of each trial
range is used to calculate Percision
Range is = highest trial value - lowest trial value |
|
Accuracy |
How close a measurement is to expected value if there is more than one child the results are averaged the average (experimental value) is compared to an expected value |
|
Significant digits |
The numbers you record when you take a measurement
The more the numbers the more exact value is |
|
Adding/subtracting measured values |
When adding and subtracting measured values the answer must have the same number of decimal places as the measured meaning the lowest decimal places in the question |
|
Supplying/dividing measurements |
When multiplying/dividing the answer has the same number of significant digits as the measurement with the fewest number of significant digits in the question |
|
Significant digits rule |
Zeros that appear after death my point and follow after a nonzero digit are always significant |
|
Significant digits rule |
Zeros between two nonzero digits are always significant |
|
Significant digits rule |
Zeros used need a space to decimal are never exact like 300 |
|
Chemistry |
Chemistry is the study of matter and its composition chemistries of the study of what happens when matter interact with other matter |
|
Energy changes |
Adding energy to matter or removing energy from matter results in change |
|
Change of state |
I change your state alters the appearance of matter |
|
Chemical change |
Changes at all to the composition of matter like I am resting what burning and bread baking |
|
Physical change |
Changes that affect the physical appearance of matter but not its composition like changes in color and texture |
|
Elements |
An element is a pure substance that cannot be separated chemically into any simpler substances like copper zinc hydrogen and oxygen |
|
Matter |
Anything that has mass and volume takes up space |
|
Properties |
Examples of properties include physical state color Oder texture boiling temperature density inflammability |
|
Physical properties |
A property that you can observe without changing one kind a matter into something new |
|
Chemical properties |
A property that you can observe one one kind of matter is converted into a different kind of matter |
|
Qualitative properties |
Can we describe but not measured numerically |
|
Quantitative properties |
Can be measured and express numerically |
