SI
The unit of volume (m^3) is derived from the unit of length m, most metric volumes are expressed in terms of the unit ____
Liters
1 L =
1000cm^3 = 1dm^3
the closeness the measurement is to the actual value
accuracy
closeness of a set of measurements to one another
precision
errors in measurement that are consistently in the same direction
systematic errors
produce different values in random errors
random error
Properties of matter can either be dependent or independent of the amount of matter present
extensive property and intensive property
1 ml
1 cm^3
all scientific measurements are reported such that all digits are certain to the last, which is an estimate
uncertainty
extensive property
Dependent ( mass, volume)
intensive property
independent ( density, boiling point, color)
matter
anything that has mas and takes up space
All matter is composed of
particles
Shape of particles in matter determines
physical and chemical properties
The shape that particular form of matter takes is dependent on the force of
intermolecular forces
Energy can’t be created or destroyed but change only change forms
law of conservation of energy
