The first thing to do is to calculate the new concentration of the solution after dilution. We do as follows:
M1V1 = M2V2
(3.0 M).006 L = M2 (18 L)
M2 = 0.001 M HNO3
When in solution it dissociated into ions as follows:
HNO3 = H+ + NO3-
[H+] = 0.001 M HNO3 ( 1 mol H+ / 1 mol HNO3 ) = 0.001 M H+
pH = -log[H+] = -log 0.001 = 3
He will most likely find that the sand has sunken to the bottom because the molecules in sand are to powerful to break apart and disslove.
Answer: The answer is
Explanation:
Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.
The rule apply for the multiplication and division is :
The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.
Thus for product of
In this problem, 2.1has 2 significant figures and 4 is an exact number with infinite significant digits thus product will have the least number of significant figures which is 2. So, the answer will be in 2 significant figures.
Therefore, the answer is
