Weekly Assignment 9/29

We had some what of a busy week this week in Chemistry. Last Friday we did a study guide that was supposed to prepare us for the test we were going to have on Tuesday. The test was over the following things; using measurements, and doing different unit conversions. We had to be able to explain/know the difference between accuracy and precision, be able to calculate percent error, use the correct number of significant figures when making a measurement, round off calculated answers to the correct number of significant figures, convert between normal and scientific notation, perform standard prefix conversions, and perform unit conversions using dimensional analysis. I actually did really well on the test, I got a 100%. On Wednesday we read these two articles about how people feel about the metric system and the standard american measuring system. We had to highlight the facts and then fill in a map with what was different and the same between the two measuring systems. For homework we had to pick between three different writing prompts and we had to right about what we read. Next class day we went over what we did and for homework we were supposed to finish off with a better more thought out answer to the writing prompt that we chose. I think that we had a really productive week and most of all I was really excited about my perfect score on the test we took.
