25
Indirect relationship
Both variables (IV + DV) go in opposite directions \ \ \
26
Slope formula
(y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
27
Outliers
Data points that are way off/ unordinary Throws data averages off
28
Significant figures (sig figs)
The digits in a number that you actually know
28
Scientific notation: +/ - powers
Positive (+): move to right Negative (-): move to left
29
How many sig figs should your answer have if it's +/-?
w/ fewest figs after the decimal point = # of sig figs u can have after decimal of answer
29
Sig fig example 1,495.2 + 1.990
1,495.2 + 1.990 = 1497.2
29
How many sig figs should your answer have if it's x or /?
The answer has the same # of sig figs as your least precise measurement
29

m = .001
31
1 in = ? cm
1 in = 2.54 cm
32
1 quart = ? mL
1 quart = 946 mL
33
1 Liter = ? quarts
1 Liter = 1.06 quarts
33
1 lb = ? grams
1 lb = 454 grams
33
1 gallon = ? quarts
1 gallon = 4 quarts
34
1 kg = ? lb (pounds)
1 kg = 2.2 lb (pounds)
35
What do u do if u spill chemicals on body?
Rinse/ wash with water
36
In a valid measurement, you record...
In a valid measurement, you record 1 estimated digit
37
Always estimate to ___ extra decimal place
Always estimate to 1 extra decimal place
38
Precision
How close a group of measurements are to each other (consistency).
39
Accuracy
How close a group up of measurements is to a standard/ known value
40
% Error + % Yield =
% Error + % Yield = 100%
41
Percent yield formula
Percent yield: (actual yield (experimental) / theoretical yield) x 100
42
Percent error formula
Percent error: l(theoretical value - experimental value)/theoretical value)l x 100
43
Theoretical value
Actual, Known, True Value
44
Measured Numbers
The numbers you get whe using a measuring tool to determine a quantity such as height/weight
45
Exact Numbers
Counted, not measured Ex. 2 soccer balls, 1 pizza
46
Can you weight directly on the balance pan?
No, must have a container
47
Can you weight hot/cold objects?
No, you can't weight hot/ cold objects.
48
ASADMODE
Addition Subtraction After Decimal, Multiply or Divide Everything (least amount of each)

1 cm^3 = 1 mL
50
Water = ? mL
Water = 1.03 mL
51
Density formula
Mass/ Volume
52
Volume: Liquid: density= / Solid: density= /
Liquid: density=grams/mL Solid: density=grams/cm^3
