Chemistry

Question 1

addition w sig figs

Answer 1

final answer should end in same place as least sig. term. If one has 1 dec point, and other has 2, final answer ends with 1 decimal point.

Question 2

sig fig rules

Answer 2

all non 0 digits are sig
all sandwiched 0s are sig
all leading 0s are not sig
trailing 0s are sig when there’s a decimal point

Question 3

multiplying w sig figs

Answer 3

count total # of sig figs in each term, and whichever has lower amount use that. If it’s 1400, do 1.4*10^3. scientific notation shows to the end of the whole number, but sig figs show sig numbers

Question 4

accurate

Answer 4

accurate when it’s close to the accepted value. use %error

Question 5

precise

Answer 5

when values are close to each other. use % deviation

Question 6

% error

Answer 6

(|measured-actual|\actual)*100

Question 7

average deviation

Answer 7

(measurment 1 - avg.)+(meas. 2 - avg.)…/# of measurments

Question 8

percent deviation

Answer 8

first find average deviation
(average deviation/average)*100

Question 9

Question 20

solution

Answer 20

a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances

Question 21

element

Answer 21

• a pure substance
