Arithmetic FunctionsVI. Unit ConversionsCurrent LectureI. Substancesa. Pure substance- matter with both definite and constant composition with distinct chemical propertiesi. Element- cannot be chemically interconverted or broken down into simpler substancesII. Mixturea. Compound- a thing that is composed of two or more separate elements; a mixturei. Homogeneous mixture- uniform in composition; can’t tell that it’s a mixtureThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.ii. Heterogeneous mixture- made up by two or more different substance which are (mixed) together but are not combined chemicallyIII. SI UnitsQuantity Unit Symbola. Length b. Meters c. Md. Mass e.

When multiplying/dividing, the final answer should have the smaller # of significant figuresii. When adding/subtracting, the answer should have the least number of digits behind the decimal IV. Unit Conversiona. 13.37 cm= ? inchesb. We know 2.54 cm = 1 inch (EXACTLY)c. 13.37 cm x (1 inch/2.54 cm) = 5.26
