• An engineer was responsible for calculating amount of water that overflowed from a dam. He measured all of the water runoff going into the reservoir (1.2 million cubic feet per year), the rainfall (860 cubic feet per year), and the capacity of the reservoir (3.8 million cubic feet). He did some fancy calculations. He reported to his boss that the overflow from the dam would be 350,246.2544330 cubic feet per year.
• What’s wrong here?

Significant Figures and Scientific Notation
![Page 4: Answer in complete sentences. What is the volume in this graduated cylinder (in mL)?](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020307/56813642550346895d9dbacd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
I. Significant Figuresaka: Significant Digits
• A. Nonzero integers count as significant figures– Ex. Any number that is NOT zero (1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9)– 345– 597.2– 145.456
![Page 5: Answer in complete sentences. What is the volume in this graduated cylinder (in mL)?](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020307/56813642550346895d9dbacd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Zeros– B. Leading zeros that come before all the
nonzero digits do NOT count as significant figures
– Ex: 0.0025 has two sig. fig. The zeros are “leading” and do not count.
– 0.23– 0.0004– 0.03564
![Page 6: Answer in complete sentences. What is the volume in this graduated cylinder (in mL)?](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020307/56813642550346895d9dbacd/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
– C. Captive zeros are between nonzero digits and DO count as sig. fig.
– Ex: 1.008 has four sig. fig. The zeros are captive and DO count.
– 10,004– 1.000006– 1,000,000,000,000,567
![Page 7: Answer in complete sentences. What is the volume in this graduated cylinder (in mL)?](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020307/56813642550346895d9dbacd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
– D. Trailing zeros are to the right end of the number and DO count as sig. fig. if the number contains a decimal point.
– Ex.: 100 has only one sig. fig. because the trailing zeros DO NOT have a decimal point.
– Example: 1.00 has three sig. fig. because the trailing zeros DO have a decimal point.
– 1.000000– 3,000,000– 3.00000– 30.00– 300– 300.

• E. Exact numbers– Any number found by counting has an
infinite number of significant figures.– Ex: I have 3 apples. The 3 has an infinite
number of significant figures.– 50 people– 100 baseballs

52,806 people.5. The budget deficit of the US
government in 1990 was $269 billion.6. The beaker held 25.6 mL of water.

III. Rules for Sig. Fig. in Mathematical Operations
• A. Multiplication and Division– The number of sig. fig. in the results should
be the same as the number of sig. fig. in the least precise measurement used in the calculation.
– Example: 4.56 x 1.4 = 6.38 6.4

• B. Addition and Subtraction– The result should have the same number of
decimal places as the least precise measurement used in the calculation.
– Example: 12.11 + 18.0 + 1.013 = 31.123 31.1 (one decimal place)
