Why is scientific notation used?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Setler [38]2 years ago
4 0

The correct option is (d) To express very large or very small number.

What is the Scientific Notation?

Scientific notation is a way to present numbers that are too large or too small to be easily written in decimal form. The three components of  scientific notation are coefficient, base and exponent. The proper format to write a scientific notation is a x 10^b, where a is a number or decimal number and b is the power of 10 to make scientific notation equivalent to original number. When a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10 then the number is expressed in scientific notation. For example,  10000000 can be written as 10⁷, which is the scientific notation and the exponent is positive here. Similarly, for the negative exponent 0.000001 can be can be represented as 10-⁷.                             Hence, the scientific notation is used to express very large or very small numbers.

Commercial concentrated aqueous ammonia is 28% nh3 by mass and has a density of 0.90 g/ml. what is the concentration of ammonia
patriot [66]

Answer:- 14.9 M

Solution:- Given commercial sample of ammonia is 28% by mass. Let's say we have 100 grams of the sample. Then mass of ammonia would be 28 grams.

Density of the solution is given as 0.90 grams per mL.

From the mass and density we could calculate the volume of the solution as:

100g(\frac{1mL}{0.90g})

= 111 mL

Let's convert the volume from mL to L as molarity is moles of solute per liter of solution.

111mL(\frac{1L}{1000mL})  

= 0.111 L

Now, we convert grams of ammonia to moles on dividing the grams by molar mass. Molar mass of ammonia is 17 gram per mole.

28g(\frac{1mole}{17g})

= 1.65 mole

To calculate the molarity we divide the moles of ammonia by the liters of solution:

molarity=\frac{1.65mole}{0.111L}

= 14.9 M

So, the molarity of the given commercial sample of ammonia is 14.9 M.

6. According to Crystal Field Theory, what should be the color of an aqueous solution of the ion [Y(H2O)6]3
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Colourless

Explanation:

We know that Y^3+ has the electronic configuration of;

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 (the 5s and 4d levels are empty).

According to the crystal field theory, the colour of complexes result from transitions between incompletely filled d orbitals.

As a result of this, complexes with empty or completely filled d orbitals are colourless. Thus,  [Y(H2O)6]3 is colourless according to the Crystal Field Theory.

How does adaption allow mice with the mutation to survive better in some areas
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: Mutations can cause instant adaptations, while natural selection is the process by which adaptations occurs over a series of generations. Adaptations are changes or processes of changes by which an organism or species becomes better suited for its environment. A mutation is an alteration of the DNA sequence.
