WHAT IS SCIENTIFIC NOTATION?

SCIENTIFIC NOTATION: A SHORT WAY TO WRITE VERY SMALL OR VERY LARGE NUMBERS 1,000,000,000,000 cm 1.0 X 10 12 cm

Page 12 Rules for Scientific Notation 1.

Put the Decimal after the 1 st zeroes. 2400 ---- 2.4

digit and drop the 2.

To find the exponent count the number of places from the end of the number. 2400 ------ 2.4 x 10 3

Guided Practice:  Turn to Page 40 in your chemistry text book  Example Problem 2.2: The diameter of the sun is 1,392,000 km The density of the sun’s lower atmosphere is 0.000000028 g/cm3

What is Dimensional Analysis?

 A systematic approach to solving problems that using conversions factors.

 Conversion factor-ratio of equivalent factors Example: 1000 meter = 1 kilometer or 1km 1000m Reciprocal ?

Answer to Group Activity 1

$3.96 /gallon The European Gas is extremely expensive.

Extra-Credit/Cooking Conversion The density of peanut oil is 0.920 g/mL. There are 237 mL in a measuring cup. If a recipe calls for ¼ cup of peanut oil, How many grams of peanut oil are required(hint: .250= ¼ ) ?

Answer to Group Activity 2

54.4 grams
