Measuring

Measuring is one of the important skill in chemistry. In the chemistry laboratory, it's common to find various apparatus e.g.buretthe, stop watch, voltmeter, thermomether, etc.

Measuring is one of the scientific skill included in Paper 3 Chemistry SPM. After going through different exam papers, examples of apparatus that I have noticed are as follows:

• stop watch(2003, 2008)
• Ruler (2003)
• Electronic balance(2004)
• Thermometer(2005, 2006, 2007)
• Buret
• Voltmeter

In order to score in this section, remember :

• write the value of the measurement according to the accuracy of the apparatus. E.g. buretthe reading has 2 decimal places.
• All the values must be consistent and with units.E.g. the unit for buretthe reading is cm3. Please ensure all reading recorded with 2 decimal places.
