Chapter 1.5, Problem 1.5.1SR
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of water contained in the graduated cylinder should be expressed in proper significant numbers.

Concept introduction:

Significant figures: The digits having a meaning in a given number are called as significant figures.

Significant figures – calculation rules

  • Significant figure is a non-zero number (8883.2 has five significant figures)
  • Zeros placement in between non-zero number are significant figures (20006 has five significant figures).
  • Zeros before the non-zero number are not significant number (0.00080009 has five significant figures).
  • Zeros after the non-zero number are significant in case of that number contains decimal point (2.1000 has five significant figures).
  • Zeros after the non-zero number may or may not be a significant figure in case of that number does not have a decimal point (100 may have 1, 2 or 3 significant figures).  In this cases use scientific notation to avoid ambiguity.
