Document Summary

Mass: amount of matter; does not change regardless of where it is measured. 1 kg = 1000 g = 1 x 10^3 g. Atomic mass unit (amu): 1. 6606378 x 10^-24 g. Density: ratio of mass to volume d = m/v. * in multiplication/division: the number of significant figures in the final answer is determined by the original number that has the smallest number of significant figures. Accuracy: how close a measurement is to the true value. Precision: how close a series of replicate measurements are. 2. 7 the mole and molar mass mole (mol) = avogadro"s number: 6. 022 x 10^23 (atoms) molar mass (g) = average atomic mass (amu) Atomic number = # of protons in the nucleus of each atom of an element. = # of electrons (to be neutral; proton = electron) Mass number = total number of neutrons and protons. Isotopes: atoms that have the same atomic number but different mass number.
