Why is scientific notation used?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Setler [38]1 year 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.

Antacids work to relieve stomach acids because of which of the following types of reactions?
Anastaziya [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which larger compound breaks down into two or more smaller compounds.

AB\rightarrow A+B

Double displacement reactions is defined as the chemical reaction in which exchange of ions takes place.

AB+CD\rightarrow AD+CB

Synthesis reaction is a type of reaction in which two or more smaller compounds combines to form a single large compound.

A+B\rightarrow AB

Single displacement reaction is a type of reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its chemical reaction.

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

In stomach, an acid is present known as hydrochloric acid and to neutralize its effect, antacid is taken which has CaCO_ as a component.

The reaction between HCl and CaCO_3 is a type of neutralization reaction and it is a type of double displacement reaction.

The equation between the two follows:

CaCO_3+HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+H_2O+CO_2

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

Water readily sticks to many other substances, a property called ______. Water readily sticks to many other substances, a proper
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

Cohesion is usually defined as the contrasting property by which the water molecules are attached to one another, and adhesion is the property by which the molecular substances are linked to the molecules of other substances.

Since, the water molecules are able to form inter-molecular hydrogen bonding, so they are comprised of strong cohesive force.

And, as the water molecules are able to stick to the walls of the container, so they tend to show more of the properties for adhesion.

Thus, according to the given condition, water molecules are sticking to other substances and this is the property of adhesion.

Hence, the correct answer is option (2).

What is the percentage strength (w/w) of a solution made by dissolving 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 ml of water?
kiruha [24]

Percent strength (% w/w) of a solution is defined as the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of the solute, potassium chloride = 62.5 g

Volume of water (solution) = 187.5 ml

We know that the density of water = 1 g/ml

Therefore, the mass corresponding to the given volume of water

= 187.5 ml * 1 g/1 ml = 187.5 g

We have a solution of 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 g water

Therefore, amount of solute in 100 g of water= 62.5 * 100/187.5 = 33.33

The percentage strength = 33.33 %
