Across
- 1. do this with exponents when performing metric conversions
- 7. typically within +/- 5%
- 11. meters, grams, liters, etc. (Table D)
- 13. mass / density
- 15. tells you how many places to move the decimal and in which direction
- 16. a ratio of an object's mass to its volume; (m / v)
- 18. mm
- 20. V; Final volume - Initial volume
- 22. using a graduated cylinder to find the volume of an irregular solid
- 23. when going from a smaller unit to a bigger unit (g --> kg)
- 25. moving the decimal point (the same as multiplying by 100)
- 26. the exponent for a base unit
- 27. include all known digits and one that is estimated
- 28. when going from a larger unit to a smaller unit (km --> cm)
Down
- 2. brings a scale back to 0
- 3. where to find accepted value densities of elements
- 4. how close a measured value is to an accepted value
- 5. count number of digits from left (Pacific) to right starting from the 1st non-zero digit
- 6. count number of digits from right (Atlantic) to left starting from the 1st non-zero digit
- 8. any percent error greater than 5%
- 9. how close a series of measurements are to each other
- 10. measured in liters (l) for liquids or cm^3 (cm x cm x cm) for solids
- 12. ((measured value - accepted value)/accepted value) x 100
- 14. where to count fewest "sig figs" when adding or subtracting
- 17. expand or contract from base units (Table C)
- 19. where to read a graduated cylinder properly
- 21. measured in grams (g)
- 24. means that a measured value is BELOW the accepted value
- 25. figs go with the fewest when multiplying or dividing
