9/9 – Friday “B” Day – Lab – 

 
Main focus:   
 
1. To identify significant figures from a raw number ( a measurement).
2. To round a multiplication or division calculation correctly using significant figures.
3. To round an addition or subtraction calculation using decimal places.
Standard 1, Key Idea, 
M1.1 – measure and record experimental data and use data in calculations
– measure and record experimental data…
– choose appropriate measurement scales and use unit in recording
– show uncertainty in measurement by the use of significant figures.

 

Period  8: –

1. Part 1 Lesson – Define a Significant Figure and identify how many significant figures are in a measurement or calculation.  I will use our class notes to teach.
 
2. Part 2 Lesson – How to round calculations based on the type of calculation. I will use our class notes to teach.

 1: Measurement and Significant Figures RAT Form:

*Please read question 5 carefully!! It is worded differently than the hardcopy!!

2:  Lab Safety Lesson– Use the Lab safety contract pdf that is posted below to complete this activity or the hardcopy I gave you in class.
 
Regents Chemistry Safety Contract .pdf
View Download  
 
In this activity, you will write the safety rule (just one sentence) ,its number from the safety contract (that I gave you and is posted below),  AND WHERE IN THE VIDEO (: timecode) that is demonstrated in four safety videos.  You need 10 different safety rules and you must use 4 out of the 6 videos. This means if you find 7 in the first video you will need 1 each from the three others to successfully complete the activity.  There are many other combinations but you must use 4 videos and you must have 10 different Safety rules written total.
 
Let me restate: You must find 10 unique safety rules throughout the four of the six videos of your choosing. 
YOU MUST ALSO IDENTIFY BY TIMECODE WHERE IN THE VIDEO THE SAFETY RULE IS BEING 
DEMONSTRATED, DISCUSSED, OR INFERRED.
 
Example of a COMPLETE answer:
                  1: Jefferson High VIDEO – #45. Examine glassware before each use. (3:23)
 
I  know what #’s each video covers and where thus will grade your work based on this accuracy.
 
The video playlist is posted above the lab safety form for your convenience.

As you may have figured it might be easier to write you responses in a word doc then cut and paste it into the form when you are done. This way you have a record which might come useful if there is a issue with submitting.
