Accuracy of digital stopwatch VS accuracy of analogue stopwatch?
± 0.01s VS ±0.1s
How to measure temperature in K if given temperature in degree celsius?
degree celsius temp + 273 = temp in K
give me measurement for
1kg = g = mg
1t = kg = g
1kt = t = kg
1 kg = 1000 g = 1 000 000 mg
1 t = 1000 kg = 1 000 000 g
1kt = 1000 t = 1 000 000kg
give me measurement for
1m=dm=cm=mm
1m = 10dm = 100cm = 1000mm
give me measurement for
1 m³ = dm³ = cm³
1 m³ = 1000 dm³ = 1 000 000 cm³
what are the 4 apparatus to measure volume?
- pipette
- volumetric flask
- measuring cylinder
- burette
accuracy of pipette
accuracy of volumetric flask
- measuring accurate fixed volume (10.0cm³ or 25.0cm³)
- measures larger accurate fixed volumes (100cm³ or 250cm³)
gas properties for:
1. displacement of water
2. upward delivery
3. downward delivery
- insoluble/sparingly soluble in H₂O (h₂ , O₂ , CO₂)
- gases less dense than air (Mr less than 29)
- gases denser than air (Mr greater than 29)
how to avoid parallax error?
when reading volume of liquid, we should at the meniscus (curve that is formed at the surface of the L in a container)
