Chemistry: Calculating with Significant Figures Print & Digital
Updated: Now includes print and digital options for the lesson. Perfect for distance learning or the paperless classroom. Interactive student notes, exit ticket, and homework for Google Slides™. In this lesson students will use sig figs in answers when calculating mathematical problems in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. In the preceding lesson, students learned to identify sig figs when recording measurements and how to count the number of sig figs in a number. Here, students will use this prior knowledge in calculations. Lesson Objectives: * Perform mathematical problems using significant figures. * Round answers to mathematical problems to the correct sig figs and units for addition and subtraction * Round answers to mathematical problems to the correct sig figs and units for multiplication and division Prior Knowledge: Precision, and measurement skills showing precision, ability to count and identify significant figures
