• Matter: Anything that has mass and
occupies space.
• Mass : The quantity or amount of
matter that an object possesses.
– Fixed
– Independent of the object’s location
• Weight: A measure of the earth’s
gravitational attraction for an object.
– Not fixed
– Depends on the object’s location.

Rounding
off Numbers
29
Rounding Off Numbers
• Often when calculations are performed
extra digits are present in the results.
• It is necessary to drop these extra digits
so as to express the answer to the
correct number of significant figures.
• When digits are dropped the value of
the last digit retained is determined by
a process known as rounding off
numbers.
30
Rounding Off Numbers
Rule 1. When the first digit after those you
want to retain is 4 or less, that digit and all
others to its right are dropped. The last digit
retained is not changed.

in a simpler form is called scientific

• Write a number as a power of 10
• Move the decimal point in the original
number so that it is located after the first
nonzero digit.
• Follow the new number by a multiplication
sign and 10 with an exponent (power).
• The exponent is equal to the number of
places that the decimal point was shifted.

41
Multiplication or Division
42
In multiplication or division, the answer
must contain the same number of
significant figures as in the measurement
that has the least number of significant
figures.
43
2.3 has two significant
figures.
(190.6)(2.3) = 438.38
190.6 has four
significant figures.
Answer given
by calculator.
The answer should have two significant
figures because 2.3 is the number with
the fewest significant figures.
Round off this

The
Metric System
50
• The metric or International System (SI,
Systeme International) is a decimal system of
units.
• It is built around standard units.
• It uses prefixes representing powers of 10 to
express quantities that are larger or smaller
than the standard units.

55
Dimensional Analysis
Dimensional analysis converts one
unit to another by using conversion
factors.
unit1 x conversion factor = unit2
56
Basic Steps
1. Read the problem carefully. Determine
what is to be solved for and write it
down.
2. Tabulate the data given in the problem.
– Label all factors and measurements with
the proper units.
57
Basic Steps
3. Determine which principles are
involved and which unit relationships
are needed to solve the problem.
– You may need to refer to tables for
needed data.
4. Set up the problem in a neat,
organized and logical fashion.

• Volume is the amount of space
occupied by matter.
• In the SI system the standard unit of
volume is the cubic meter (m3).
• The liter (L) and milliliter (mL) are the
standard units of volume used in most
chemical laboratories.

Measurement of
Temperature
83
Heat
• A form of energy that is associated
with the motion of small particles of
matter.
• Heat refers to the quantity of this
energy associated with the system.
• The system is the entity that is being
heated or cooled.
84
Temperature
• A measure of the intensity of heat.
• It does not depend on the size of the
system.
• Heat always flows from a region of
higher temperature to a region of lower
temperature.
85
Temperature Measurement
• The SI unit of temperature is the Kelvin.
• There are three temperature scales: Kelvin,
Celsius and Fahrenheit.
• In the laboratory temperature is commonly
measured with a thermometer.
