Q

5 rules for significant digits in multiplication and division

A
  1. all non zero numbers are significant (ex. 2,357 = 4 sigfig)
  2. trapped zeros are sig fig
    (ex. 2005= 4 sigfig)
  3. trailing zeros are significant if there is a decimal in the number anywhere (ex. 2.500)
  4. if there is no decimal trailing zeros are not sig figs
  5. starting zeros not significant
    (ex. 0.0025 = 2 sig fig)

Q

rules for applying sig fig for addition and subtraction

A

the final answer MATCHES the LEAST TOTAL digits after the decimal

ex. 0.0005 {4 digits}
+ 26.3 {1 digit}
1.29 {2 digits}
—————————————-
27.5905 = 27.6 {1 digit}

30
exothermic is
decreasing cooling curve \
31
endothermic is
increasing heat curve /
32
Celsius boiling point
100 C
33
order of endothermic (/) heat curve
ALL ENERGY INCREASING /A - B/: Solid {K.E increasing} ___B - C___: solid to liquid = solidifies/freezes {P.E} /C - D /: liquid = reaches boiling point at D {K.E} __D - E__: liquid to gas = boiling/vaporization {P.E} /E - F/: gas {K.E}
34
order of exothermic cooling curve
ALL ENERGY DECREASING /F - E/: gas {K.E decreasing} __E - D__: gas to liquid {P.E decreasing} /D - C/: liquid {K.E decreasing} __C - B__: liquid to solid= freezes/solidifies {P.E} /B - A/: solid {K.E decreasing}
