IMPORTANCE OF
ACCURACY AND HOW
TO
Why ACHIEVE
Accuracy IT
is Key in Chemistry:
•Accurate measurements give us the right answers.

R •Helps us figure out what's happening in reactions and chemicals.

How to Make Sure You're Accurate:

RK •
•
•
Using the Right tools: Pick instruments that are checked and ready.
Follow the Recipe: Stick to the steps exactly as they're written.
Don't Forget Units: Report your measurements in the right way.

Why Being Precise is necessary:

•Precise measurements give us results that are close each time.
•It lets us notice even the tiniest changes in reactions.

Remember This: When you're accurate and precise, you’re

becoming a better chemist!

 HAZARD SYMBOLS

Importance of Symbols:
•Symbols are like quick warnings.
•They show dangers without words

Purpose of Symbols:
•Keep us safe from harm.
•Remind us how to handle things right.

Why They Matter:

•Work, labs, chemicals - symbols are
everywhere.
•Symbols speak a universal language of caution.
•Its easy to understand
