Units of Measurement
SI units (Systeme Internationale d’Unites) were developed so
that scientists could duplicate and communicate their work.
A unit that is defined by a
combination of a base units.

What is the significance of this number?
How would you express this number in
scientific notation?
Scientific Notation
Coefficient
6.02 x
1023
Exponent
The coefficient must be greater than or equal to one and less than 10.
When expressing numbers less than one (ex. 0.001) in scientific notation, the
decimal point is moved to the right until the coefficient is within range. The
number of spaces moved is used to determine the exponent.
For numbers less than one, the exponent is negative
When expressing numbers greater than 10 (ex. 1000) in scientific notation,
the decimal point is moved to the left until the coefficient is within range. The
number of spaces moved is used to determine the exponent.
For numbers greater than 1, the exponent is positive.
Scientific Notation Calculations
Multiplication and Division
 For multiplication, multiply the coefficients and add the exponents
(1.3 x 104) x (2.0 x 106) = 2.6 x 1010
 Remember, your final answer must be in the correct form. Often,
multiplication of coefficients will yield a number greater than 10. In this case
the result must be changed into the proper form.
(5.3 x 104) x (2.0 x 106) = 10.6 x 1010 = 1.06 x 1011
 For division, divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents. Often,
division of coefficients will result in a value that is less than one. If this
occurs, the final result must be changed into the proper form.
(2.0 x 10-3)  (4.00 x 104) =
0.5 x 10-7 =
5 x 10-8
Scientific Notation Calculations
Addition and Subtraction
 In order to add or subtract numbers in scientific notation, the
exponents of each number has to be the same
 As a rule of thumb, it is best to take the number with the lower
exponent and change it match the higher exponent.
 To increase an exponent, move the decimal point in the coefficient
to left, the number of spaces equal to the increase in the exponent.
 Once the exponents are equal, the coefficients can be added or
subtracted

How long is this paperclip? To what degree
of certainty can it be measured?
Significant Figures in Measurement
Scientists determine the precision of instruments
by the number of digits they report.
Significant Figures in Measurement
Measurements always include all certain
digits and one uncertain digit.

What value would you
assign to each of these
measurements?
_________ mL
_________ cm
Identifying Significant Figures in Numbers
When examining a number, you determine the number
of digits that are significant by the following rules:
1.All non-zero numbers are significant
2.All final zeros to the right of a decimal are significant
3.Zeros between significant digits are significant
4.
4.For positive numbers less than one, all zeros directly
after the decimal before the first significant figure are
not significant.
5.All zeros at the end of a whole number are not
5.
significant.
6.All contants and counting numbers have an unlimited
number of significant figures.
Sig Fig Challenge
How many sig figs are there in the following
numbers:
1.

Sig Fig Rules for Calculations
Multiplication and Division
Your answer can not contain more or less sig figs than the
operator that contains the least number of sig figs.
3.86 x 0.45=1.737
1.7
1.737
Identify the significant figures, look on place beyond. If that
digit is 5 or above, round up. If it is less than 5 drop off.
Sig Fig Rules for Calculations
Addition and Subtraction
Your answer can not be more precise than the least
precise operator. Most of the time this means that your
answer must have the same number of decimal places
as the least precise operator

If one of the numbers is a whole number that ends in zero(s), then the
final answer must be rounded to the lowest place that contains a nonzero
number.
Metric Conversions
Move the decimal to the left
K  h  da  b  d  c  m
Move the decimal to the right
o Every metric unit is different from its neighbor
by a factor of ten
o When converting between two units the decimal
point is moved the number of places equal to the
distance between the two unit in the chart
above and in the same direction of movement
