to the true VS Precision is how close those accuracy values are to eacho 2. Suppose you are given a metal object that you weigh on a centigram balance. The recorded mass is 16.78 g. The volume of the object was determined by carefully sliding the metal object into a graduated cylinder containing 27.8 mL of water. The water in the cylinder was displaced up to a final volume of 37.7 mL. 37.7ml-27.8mL = 9.9 a. Determine the density of the metal object m V D = 16.789 9.9ml b. Which measurement, mass or volume, limits the number of significant figures? Why? Volume because it has the least amount of figures which is 2. = 1.7 3. Now suppose that you carefully repeat your experiment using an analytical balance and a graduated cylinder that can be read to the nearest 0.01 mL. The recorded mass is 16.7755 g. The graduated cylinder readings before and after introducing the metal object are 27.86 mL and 37.86 mL respectively. a. Determine the density of the metal object b. Which measurement, mass or volume, limits the number of significant figures? Why?

» Significant Figure Rules 01 >> 02 >> 03 >> 04 >> 05 >> All nonzero digits are significant. Zeros that appear between other nonzero digits are always significant. Zeros that appear in front of all of the nonzero digits are called left-end zeros. Left-end zeros are never significant. Zeros that appear after all nonzero digits are called right-end zeros. Right-end zeros in a number that locks a decimal point are not significant. ▬▬▬ 美銀銀時 ☐☐ Right-end zeros in a number with a decimal point are significant. This is true whether the zeros occur before or ofter the decimal point. 237 has three significant figures. 1.897 has four significant figures. 39,004 has five significant figures. 5.02 has three significant figures. 0.008 has one significant figure. 0.000416 has three significant figures. 140 has two significant figures. 75,210 has four significant figures. 620.0 has four significant figures. 19.000 has five significant figures.
