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.

The balanced equation shows how sodium chloride reacts with silver nitrate to form sodium nitrate and silver chloride. NaCl + Ag
Verdich [7]
<span>NaCl First calculate the molar mass of NaCl and AgNO3 by looking up the atomic weights of each element used in either compound Sodium = 22.989769 Chlorine = 35.453 Silver = 107.8682 Nitrogen = 14.0067 Oxygen = 15.999 Now multiply the atomic weight of each element by the number of times that element is in each compound and sum the results For NaCl 22.989769 + 35.453 = 58.44277 For AgNO3 107.8682 + 14.0067 + 3 * 15.999 = 169.8719 Now calculate how many moles of each substance by dividing the total mass by the molar mass For NaCl 4.00 g / 58.44277 g/mol = 0.068443 mol For AgNO3 10.00 g / 169.8719 g/mol = 0.058868 Looking at the balanced equation for the reaction, there is a 1 to 1 ratio in molecules for the reaction. Since there is a smaller number of moles of AgNO3 than there is of NaCl, that means that there will be some NaCl unreacted, so the excess reactant is NaCl</span>
