General Chemistry 1 Lab 1: Laboratory Techniques and Measurements Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to ensure that students are able to understand how to conduct measurements of length‚ mass‚ temperature‚ density and volume using different measuring devices. Students will also learn how to dilute substances by using simple algebra. Procedure: 1. Prepare a data table similar to Data Table 1 shown below. 2. Choose any three objects that are shorter than the metric ruler to measure‚ such

The History of Pi Throughout the history of mathematics‚ one of the most enduring challenges has been the calculation of the ratio between a circle’s circumference and diameter‚ which has come to be known by the Greek letter pi. From ancient Babylonia to the Middle Ages in Europe to the present day of supercomputers‚ mathematicians have been striving to calculate the mysterious number. They have searched for exact fractions‚ formulas‚ and‚ more recently‚ patterns in the long string of numbers
