THE NATURE OF SCIENCE
![Page 21: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
I. WHAT IS SCIENCE An attempt to describe the universe
based on basic rules Scientists form experiments to
learn something new test current theories and predictions
![Page 22: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
I. THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD Make an Observation
Made using your five sensesLeads to asking a questionMay be direct or indirect
![Page 23: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
I. THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD Do background research
Who else has studied this?What has been discovered relating to this?How can I add to the research already
done?
![Page 24: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
I. THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD Construct a hypothesis
Based on the research you have done, what do you think is going to happen?
![Page 25: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
I. THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD Develop and conduct an experiment
Write down each step with great detailMake sure you only test 1 variable
Variables are parts of the experiment that can be changed
Two types Independent – the variable YOU changeDependent – the variable nature changes
(reacts to what you changeBe sure to have a control group
Do not add or remove any thing from this groupMake sure all surrounding conditions are
constant
![Page 26: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Designing an experimentWhat are the variables?Which group is the control?What do we need to keep constant?
![Page 27: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
I. SCIENTIFIC METHOD Analyze your data and draw a
conclusionData can be classified two ways
Qualitative data – descriptive data (colors) Quantitative data – numerical data (counting)
Create graphs to show your data Bar graphs have no relation between the
categories as the experiment progressed Line graphs show how the tested variable
changed as the experiment progressed
![Page 28: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
I. SCIENTIFIC METHOD Communicate your results
Communicating your results allows other scientists to repeat your experiment If there is a discrepancy in the
results then your experiment can be reviewed and repeated.

III. THEORIES AND LAWS Theories are
Supported by observationsExplanations that have been tested by
repeated observationsSome theories cannot be tested
Continental drift
A valid theory mustExplain observations simply and clearlyBe shown by repeatable experimentsBe able to allow the scientist to make
predictable hypotheses

III. MAKING MEASUREMENTS Observations rely on quantitative
measurementsHow much? How many?How long?How big?
In order to answer these questions we must take measurements using appropriate tools!
![Page 41: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

between any two pointsShort distances are measured with
centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm) long distances are measured with
kilometers. (km)
![Page 42: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

III. MAKING MEASUREMENTS Volume – the amount of space an object
takes upLarge objects are going to be measure in
liters or kilolitersSmall objects are going to be measured in
milliliters If an object is a square you find the volume
by using length X width X height

IV. PRECISE VS ACCURATE While taking measurements it is very
important to be both precise and accurate
PreciseBeing able to get near the same
measurement each and every time
AccurateBeing able to get the correct measurement
![Page 46: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

II. WRITING NUMBERS IN SCI NOT. Scientific notation is used to express
very large numbers and very small numbers
By writing numbers in scientific notation we are able to remove excess zeroes by multiplying by a factor of ten
![Page 55: Unit 1. Dress appropriately for lab Goggles Apron Close toed shoes Gloves (when needed) Hair tied back No loose clothing No loose jewelry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfa11a28abf838c957ca/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
II. WRITING NUMBERS IN SCI NOT. Steps to writing numbers in scientific notation
Find the decimal If there is not a decimal assume the decimal is at the
end of the number Move the decimal so that the number before the
decimal is between 1 and 9 This could be either left or right
Count the number of spaces you moved the decimal
If you moved the decimal right, then write X 10number
If you moved the decimal left, then write X 10-number
