The Standard Deviation is a measure of how spread out numbers are. Its symbol is???(the greek letter sigma) The formula is easy: it is the?square root?of the?Variance Variance = The average of the?squared?differences from the Mean. To calculate the variance follow these steps: Work out the Mean (the simple average of the numbers) Then for each number: subtract the Mean and square the result (the squared difference). Then work out the average of those squared differences. (Why Square?)

Pre-AP Chemistry Modern Chemistry (2006) Chapter 2 Notes-Measurements and Calculations 2.1 The Scientific Method The process that researchers use to carry out their investigations is often called the scientific method. The scientific method is a logical approach to solving problems by observing and collecting data, formulating hypotheses, testing hypotheses, and formulating theories that are supported by data. 2.2 Units of Measurement Units of Measurement Measurements are quantitative information. They represent quantities. A quantity is something that has magnitude, size, or amount. A quantity is not the same as a measurement. For example, the quantity represented by a teaspoon is volume. The teaspoon is a unit of measurement, while the volume is a quantity.

Against All Odds Program 1 Quiz ?What is Statistics?? Name ________________ 1. Dr. Amabile is a _______________ as well as a psychologist. The secret of success is using _______________ to check each step of the operation. Consumer trials stick to a precise script so the results can be compared _______________. Any _______________ due to order of presentation gets cancelled out in the second round. There?s one more essential step, ________________________ the whole package in selected cities and measuring the response. Without these statistical analyses, we would never really be sure whether or not two things are ___________________ different or not, we?d just be guessing.

Presentation of chapter 1 Frank Chen Period 5 1.4 Conversion of Units In 1960, an international committee established a set of fundamental quantities of science which is called SI. There is also a set of U.S. customary units, theses are some examples of convert U.S. into SI: 1 mile = 1609 m = 1.609 km; 1 m = 39.37 in. = 3.281 ft; 1 ft = 0.3048m = 30.48 cm; 1 in = 0.0254m = 2.54 cm Conversion Factors The method to convert the different units into the required unit Ex. 13.0 in. = (15 in.)(2.54 cm/1in.) = 38.1 cm 1.5 Order of magnitude Order of Magnitude is an scientific method use symbol ?~?to estimate a magnitude round into one digit and expressed in scientific notation. Ex. 0.00054m ~ 10^-4m 3600m ~ 10^3m 4 1.6 Uncertainty in Measurements

DBA for Module 1: What is the definition of science. Science is The study of physical properties and the history of the natural world. What is the difference between precision and accuracy: precision is given by the ability of the instrument to get as close to the true value of the measurement as possible. some measuring instruments are more precise then others. In other words, an instrument that measures to the nearest 100th place is more precise than the one that measures to the nearest 10th place. Accuracy is how accurate your measurement is. How careful one is in reading the measurement correctly. How are significant figures used in calculations?
