What does SI stand for?
International System of Units
What is the percent error equation?
Actual - Observed / Actual X 100%
What are valence electrons
outermost shell electrons
What does "Atomos" mean?
cannot be divided
Most of the atom is ________
Empty space
0.85 km =0.528 mi ____ m
850
What's the difference between accuracy and precision?
Accuracy is close to bullseye
precision is how many times can you repeat it
What is mass number
Atomic mass rounded to nearest whole number
What is the law of multiple proportions?
Whenever a fixed amount of one element could combine with different masses of a second element, those masses always occurred in a ratio that could be reduced to small whole numbers.
What is an isotope?
Same element with different mass so different number of neutrons
6,250 mg = _____ g
6.25 g
What are the 2 types of uncertainty? Describe them
Random - Slight variations when the same person repeats measurements with the same instrument and Systematic - Skewed measurements in only one direction from a known instrumental issue
What is atomic mass
Protons plus neutrons
Who developed the law of definite proportions?
John Proust
Draw Thomson's experiment on the board
HAHA
2.75 kL = _____ L
2,750 L
What is the density equation?
m / V
What is Atomic Number?
protons
Name the 5 scientists who developed the 5 models
dalton, thomson, Rutherford, bohr, schrodinger
What experiment did Rutherford perform?
Gold Foil
What are the 3 reasons we use the Metric (SI) System?
Only one unit for each measurable dimension (think meter/kilometer vs. feet/yard/mile
Units are based on natural phenomena and most are based on physical constants so they can be verified easily
It is a decimal system so you are moving up and down the scale by the factors of ten so it's easier to convert.
What are the 4 Sig Fig rules?
nonzero digits are significant
All zeros between nonzero digits are significant
All ending zeros to the right of the decimal are significant
Leading zeros are NEVER significant
What are the 3 Key ideas of atomic theory?
What are the 5 models in chronological order?
solid sphere, plum, nuclear, planetary, quantum
Draw the unit prefix chart
HAHA
