Significant Figures Review All answers to arithmetic problems are expected to have a precise answer. The difficulty in applying this simple principle lies in being able to tell the difference between arithmetic precision and the validity of an answer. In most real-world problems such as statics and strength of materials, only the first few ...

CHM 130 Sig Fig Practice Problems Significant digits or figures are not something we make up to terrorize you all semester long. They represent the accuracy of a measurement. For example, a cheap bathroom scale bought at the dollar store reads your weight as 152 pounds, not 152.45809 pounds. It is not that accurate.

One way of indicating that some or all the zeros are significant is to write the number in scientific notation form (See Section 6). For example, a number such as 2000 would be written as 2 x 103 if it contains one significant figure, and as 2.0 x 103 if it contains two significant figures. Problems: Significant Figures

Example #2 - Round 3.78721 to three significant figures. Look at the fourth figure. It is 7, a number greater than 5, so you round the original number up to 3.79. Example #3 - Round 726.835 to five significant figures. Look at the sixth figure. It is a 5, so now you must look at the fifth figure also.

is the last significant figure that we report. This first uncertain digit has some value because it is our best estimate, and therefore it is included as a significant figure. However, since we are not 100% sure about this uncertain digit, we can not know (and should not report) any numbers further to the right.

3) Zeros written to the left of all nonzero digits are not significant. For example, “0.0034 grams” has two significant figures. 4) Zeros written to the right of all nonzero digits are only significant if a decimal point is written in the number. For example, “1000 grams” has one significant figure…

Significant Figures are a necessary part of any math based science. Significant Figures are the digits in your number that were actually measured plus one estimated digit. Significant Figures Rules: 1) All nonzero digits are significant. 2) Zeros between significant digits are significant. 3) Zeros to the left of nonzero digits are not significant.
