1 Workheet 0 - Calculation Significant Figure - the number of ignificant figure (ig. fig.) i a meaure of the degree of uncertainty in a meaurement. There i experimental uncertainty in the lat ignificant figure of a meaurement. The rule for ig. fig. are given in Chapter 1.5. All non-zero number are ignificant. Zero between number are ignificant. Zero to the left of number are not ignificant. Zero to the right of number may be ignificant (in preence ofa decimal point). 1. Expre each of the following number in cientific notation and decide the number of ignificant figure: ,000 30, Scientific notation igofig..:t.,!-, OfJlO x 10 1,09 1(0)( 10 3 ~ 1, O?IX IO 3 3'()8' 'X 10? 6 L 3 n{) ~u ( A(;4e:ku'mJr(it~J II II 1'1)~'F.ACA 3, oy(o )(10 t 5 l/ ~dlcvrnj 0 / 6 03DX 10- <if 0- Ii~ &kc~m~ Calculation with ignificant figure - In multiplication or diviion, the number of ig. fig. in the anwer ha only a many ig. fig. a the factor with the mallet number of ig. fig.

In addition and ubtraction, the anwer hould be reported to the ame number of decimal place a the term with the leat number of decimal place == ~ 2 decimal place - limiting factor which round to 0.84 (2 decimal place) Do addition and ubtraction firt. When rounding, number ~ 5 are rounded up. Do not round until the end of the calculation.
