== Definitions ==

* Chemistry
  - Study of the compostion, structure, properties and reactions of matter
* [[matter|Matter]]
  - Any material that occupies space and has mass
* Composition
  - Identity and relative amounts of the components of matter. Described with
    "formulas"
* Macroscopic
  - Large scale properties that may be determined directly
* Microscopic
  - Small scale properties that must be determined by indirect methods. Usually
    on the atomic or molecular level

== [[energy|Energy]] == 

Ability to do work

see [[energy]]

== Scientific Method ==

Way to thourghly understand the world that is testable

== Accuracy vs Precision ==

* Accuracy 
 - agreement of measured values with the "correct" values
* Precision
 - how reproducable is the measurment

== Error ==

* Systematic
 - Error is higher/lower than expectation, usually due to measurment device
* Random error
 - Always present, makes values change slightly
