01/26/16 - 5/6 C1H - 002 Sig Digs/Sci Notation


Learning Goals 
  1. Explain the difference between accuracy (how close a measurement is to a true or accepted value) and precision (how close a set of measurements are to each other)
  2. Apply the rules for writing measurements using sig digs as they apply to:
  3. Nonzero integers.
  4. Zeros. (Address all three cases of zeros)
  5. Exact numbers.

                                                  3. Lab/Post-lab 
                                                      1. Post answers to pre-lab to GC
                                                      2. Complete questions from the post-lab questions lab and paste in your data table
