A. Accuracy vs. Precision
ACCURACY__________ - How close you are to the correct measurement or calculation based on the standard value.
PRECISION__________ - How close your measurements are to EACH OTHER
The density of aluminum is 2.78 g/cm3.
Bob calculates the density three times and gets 2.75, 2.79 and 2.77.
AVG: 2.77
Mary calculates the density three times and gets 4.66, 4.67, and 4.65
AVG: 4.66
Holden calculates the density three times and gets 10.25, 6.87, and 1.25
AVG: 6.12
Franz calculates the density three times and gets 2.90, 1.95, 3.44
AVG: 2.76
ACCURATE AND PRECISE
ACCURATE BUT NOT PRECISE
PRECISE BUT NOT ACCURATE
NIETHER ACCURATE NOR PRECISE

F. Metric conversions – conversion factors
All conversions start with an EQUALITY
1 inch is the same as 2.54 cm
1 inch = 2.54 cm
Equalities are turned into conversion factors:
1inch 2.54cmor
2.54cm 1inchNotice the
top andbottom are
same length!

F. Metric conversions – powered units
Misconception: 1 m = 100 cm but1m3 ≠ 100 cm3
1 m3 cube1 m
1 m
1 m100 cm
100 cm
100 cm
So, 100x100x100 =1,000,000 cm3
If the unit is cubed,you cube the numberstoo
(1 m)3 = (100 cm)3
1 m3 = 1,000,000 cm3

A student measures the density of a solid as 3.42 g/cc. The solid really has a density of 3.76 g/cc. Calculate the percent error. cc = cubic centimeter
Va = 3.76 g/cc Ve = 3.42 g/cc
