Conversion factors:
____ cm = ____ m
____ g= _____ kg
____ mL=____L
100 cm = 1 m
1000 g= 1 Kg
1000 mL= 1 L
Difference between accuracy and precision?
Accuracy-How close to actual value
Precision- how close together values are
Law Of Conservation of Matter
In a chemical reaction mass is not gained or destroyed
Law of definite proportions
Atoms of the same element can combine in more than one ratio to another element to form different compounds
Law of definite composition
A chemical compound always contains the same element in the same proportion regardless of where it comes from
John DALTON

Schrodinger
Modern model
Atom
Smallest particle of an element that retains its properties
Atomic #
Equal to number of protons
Mass number
Protons + Neutrons
Isotope
Atoms that have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons
Average Atomic Mass
weighted average of the masses of all the isotopes of an element
Proton
+1 charge
Nucleus
Relative mass of 1
Electron
-1
Outside of Nucleus
Relative mass of 1
Neutron
Neutral charge
Nucleus
1/2000 (less than one)
Element
Made of one kind of atom can’t be broken down further
Example of element
