2.2 Scientific Notation & Dimensional Analysis
Monday, September 23, 13
Scientific Notation
• Can be used to express any number as a number between 1 and 10 (coefficient) multiplied by 10 raised to any power (exponent).
• 36,000 = 3.6 x 104
• Positive exponent = how much the coefficient must be multiplied by 10.
• 0.00036 = 3.6 x 10-4
Monday, September 23, 13
Scientific Notation
• The value of the exponent = the number of places the decimal point moved.
• Exponent is positive when decimal point moves to the left.
• EXAMPLES
• Exponent is negative when the decimal point moves to the right.
• EXAMPLES

Math with Scientific Notation
•Addition and Subtraction
• Exponents must be the same.
• EXAMPLES
• If not the same, rewrite with same exponent.
• EXAMPLES

Scientific Notation
•Multiplication & Division
• Two-step process.
• Multiply / divide coefficients.
• Add / subtract exponents
• EXAMPLES

Dimensional Analysis• Use conversion factors to to convert one unit to
another.
• Conversion factor is a ratio of equivalent values having different units.
• Relationships between units

Mega M 1,000,000 1 Mg = 1,000,000 g
Kilo K 1,000 1 Kg = 1,000 g
Deci d 0.1 10 dg = 1 g
Centi c 0.01 100 cg = 1 g
Milli m 0.001 1000 mg = 1 g
Micro u 0.000001 1,000,000 ug = 1 gMonday, September 23, 13
Using Conversion Factors
• Must accomplish two things:
• Must cancel one unit.
• Must introduce a new one.
• All units except what you want must cancel out.
• EXAMPLE
• How many pizzas do I need to order to give each person in class two pieces? (1 pizza = 8 pieces)

2.3 Uncertainty in Data
Monday, September 23, 13
Uncertainty in Data
• Every measurement contains some amount of error.
• Must evaluate both accuracy and precision each time.
Monday, September 23, 13
Uncertainty in Data
• Accuracy
• The closeness of a measured value to an accepted value.
• Precision
• The closeness a series of measurements are to one another.

Error and Percent Error
• Accuracy of experiment is measured by comparing how close the experimental value comes to the accepted value.
• Experimental value
• Measured during an experiment.
• Accepted value
• True value
Monday, September 23, 13
Error and Percent Error
• Experimental Error
• Difference between experimental and accepted values.
• Error = experimental value - accepted value
• Percent Error
• Expresses error as percentage of accepted value.
• Percent Error = | error | X 100
accepted value
Accepted value= 1.59 Error = 0.05 Percent Error = 3.14%

Significant Figures
• Rounding Numbers
• Identify the last significant figure.
• If number to right of last significant figure is:
• Less than Five, DO NOT change: 35.3 = 35
• Greater than FIVE, round UP: 35.8 = 36
• Five:
• Do nothing if the last significant figure is EVEN: 3.525014 = 3.52
• Round UP if the last significant figure is ODD: 3.515014 = 3.52

Representing Data
• “A picture is worth.....
• A graph is a picture
• Scientists use graphs to present data in a form that allows them analyze results and communicate information about their experiments.
Monday, September 23, 13
Graphing
• Goal of experiments is to discover patterns within situations.
• Does changing temp change rate of rxn?
• Does change in diet affect rat’s ability to navigate maze?
• Data listed in tables may not make patterns obvious.
• Using data to create graphs can help reveal patterns.
• Graph = visual display of data.

Circle Graphs (Pie Chart)
• Useful for showing parts of a fixed whole.
• Comparison of data
• Parts usually labeled as percents.

• Determine independent and dependent variables.
• x-axis vs y-axis?
• Decide if relationship is linear or nonlinear.
• If linear, determine if slope is positive or negative.
