Chemistry defined as the science that
deal with the materials of the universe
and the changes that these materialsundergo.
Central science most of the
phenomena involve chemical change,where one/more substances become
different substance.

Different instruments enable us to measure a substances
properties. The meter stick measures length or scale; the burette, the
pipette, the graduated cylinder and the volumetric flaskmeasure volume, the thermometer measures temperatures.
These instruments provide measurements of macroscopicproperties, which can be determined directly.
A measured quantity is usually written as a number with anappropriate unit.
UNITS ARE ESSENTIAL TO STATING

The General Conference of Weights and Measures, theinternational authority on units, proposed a revised metricsystem called the International System of Units (SI, from the
French Systeme Internationale dUnites).
Measurements that we will utilize frequently in our study ofchemistry include time, mass, volume, density andtemperature.

The terms mass and weight are often usedinterchangeably, although they are different quantities.
Massis a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
Weight is the force that gravity exerts on an object. An apple that falls from a tree is pulled downward by Earthsgravity.
The mass of an apple is constant and does not depend on its location,but its weight does.
The SI unit of mass is the kilogram (kg).
1 kg = 1000 g = 1 x 103g

The SI unit of length is the meter (m), and the SI-derived unitfor volume is the cubic meter (m3).
However, chemists work with such smaller volumes, such as
the cubic centimeter and the cubic decimeter:
Another common unit of volume is the liter (L).
1 cm3= (1 x 10-2m)3= 1 x 10-6m3
1 dm3= (1 x 10-1m)3= 1 x 10-3m3
1 L = 1000 mL = 1000 cm3= 1 dm3
1 mL = 1 cm3

measure of the relative "heaviness" of objects with a
constant volume.

Three temperature scales are currently in use.Their units are 0F (degrees Fahrenheit), 0C (degrees Celcius), and K (kelvin).

conveniently written in decimal form.

Addition or Subtraction
1. Write each quantity with thesame exponent n
2. Combine N1
and N2
3. The exponent, n, remains the
same

Numbers from definitions or numbers of objects are considered
to have an infinite number of significant figures
