Example text

From the earliest days of civilization, trade has required common units. For example, if a farmer from one region wanted to trade some of his grain for the gold of a miner who lived in another region, the two people had to have common standards (units) for measuring the amount of the grain and the weight of the gold. The need for common units also applies to scientists, who measure quantities such as mass, length, time, and temperature. If every scientist had her or his own personal set of units, complete chaos would result.

67 ϫ 10 Ϫ4 We moved the decimal point four places to the right. 1 Scientific Notation 17 We summarize these procedures below. 0 ϫ 10Ϫ2 MATH SKILL BUILDER Left Is Positive; remember LIP. • Any number can be represented as the product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10 (either positive or negative). • The power of 10 depends on the number of places the decimal point is moved and in which direction. The number of places the decimal point is moved determines the power of 10. The direction of the move determines whether the power of 10 is positive or negative.

Don’t expect too much of yourself too soon. You may not understand everything at first, and you may not be able to do many of the problems the first time you try them. This is normal. It doesn’t mean you can’t learn chemistry. Just remember to keep working and to keep learning from your mistakes, and you will make steady progress. Chapter 1 Review Active Learning Questions These questions are designed to be considered by groups of students in class. Often these questions work well for introducing a particular topic in class.
