<strong>Significant</strong> <strong>Figures</strong><br />
This is one of the things your math teachers<br />
probably didn’t tell you.<br />
2.2 g ≠ 2.200 g<br />
The second measurement is much more precise<br />
than the first! The 2 zeros at the end of 2.200 g<br />
show precision and are sig figs.<br />
2.2 g has 2 sig figs, but 2.200 g. has 4!
