Metric System

A measurement system based on the number 10 which uses prefix to make the unit larger or smaller than the base.

Units

A particular amount (g, L, km)

Dimensional Analysis

A problem solving method scientists use to convert units of measurement. Uses equivalence statements as ratios and cross out units.

Significant figures

All certain digit and one estimated digit.

Conversion Factor

An equivalence statement written as a ratio: 1inch/2.54cm or 2.54cm/inch

Density

D=M/V. The ratio between mass and volume.

Kelvin Scale

K = C + 273.15. A temperature scale with zero degrees K defined as absolute zero (no molecular movement)

Rounding off

Reducing the digits in a number while trying to keep its value similar.

SI Units

System of units of measurements that is widely used all over the world. There are seven base units: Mass, length, time, temperature, amount, current, luminosity.

Mass

The amount of matter in an object. SI unit = kg

Volume

The amount of space that a substance or object occupies. SI = m³

Scientific notation

Way of writing very small or very large numbers. Consists of a coefficient, base ten and an exponent. Ex: 2.5 x 10³
