You are asked to weigh approximately 0. 4g of acetylsalicylic acid to the nearest mg. When you enter the data in grams in your l

The significant figures will be 1.

As, weight of acetylsalicylic acid = 0. 4 g

We obtain 400 mg when we convert 0.4g of acetylsalicylic acid to mg.

So, 400 milligrams are worth 0.4 grams when converted to grams.

There is just one significant figure because 0 before a decimal is not significant i.e. 4.

<h3><u>What are significant figures?</u></h3>

The digits of a number that have relevance in relation to the measurement's resolution are known as significant figures. Additionally known as significant figures in chemistry. All experimental measurements are subject to some degree of uncertainity.

The IUPAC name of(CH3)2CHCH2CH=CH2
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

4-Methyl-1-pentene

Explanation:

According to  the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry is defined as the system of naming organic chemical compounds.

There are certain rules for naming organic chemical compounds as per IUPAC. The name of given (CH3)2CHCH2CH=CH2 will be based on the same rules.

  • At first find out the longest continuous chain and number the chain consecutively (preference given to double and single bonds), so numbering will start from right to left. the given chemical is 5 Carbon chain long.
  • Then, identify the groups attached to this chain. Methyl is the only group attached to this chain at  4 Carbon.
  • Assemble the name in alphabetical order using the full name using correct prefix and suffix.  

4-Methyl-1-pentene is the name of this chemical, as methyl is in 4th carbon position, Pent for 5 carbon chain and -ene (suffix) for one double bond).

Hence, the correct answer is "4-Methyl-1-pentene".

Which of the following is an accurate mathematical expression of Dalton's law? Assume the variable ‘P' stands for pressure.
GaryK [48]
Dalton's law of partial pressures states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of its components:
\text {P}_{\text{Total}} = \text P_{\text {gas 1}} + \text P_{\text {gas 2}} + \text P_{\text {gas 3}} ...P
​Total

How do you do this problem?
olchik [2.2K]

There are not too many things that are more insoluble than AgCl. When you actually do this experiment, virtually all of the AgCl sinks to the bottom of the test tube (or whatever container you are doing it in). The CuCl2 is very soluble. It is a gorgeous Forest Green with a very slightly blue tinge so you can tell that you are successful.  

CuCl2 is very soluble.

That makes A incorrect.

AgCl is really insoluble

Looks like B is the answer.

C is just wrong. No complex is formed. The equation is a double replacement.

AgNO3 + HCl ====> AgCl(s) + HNO3 Not a good example but it is correct.

Cu(NO3)2 + 2HCl ===> CuCl2 + 2HNO3

D is not true. Ag will react with the HCl That's how you get AgCl going to the bottom.

E A double replacement need not transfer electrons. In this case it does not. E is incorrect.

Consider a galvanic cell in which Al 3 is reduced to elemental aluminum and magnesium metal is oxidized to Mg 2 . Write the bala
Gnom [1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The half cell reactions taking place at cathode and anode is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode. Here, magnesium is getting oxidized and aluminium is getting reduced.

The half reactions for the cell is:

<u>Oxidation half reaction (anode):</u>  Mg(s)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2e^-   ( ×  3)

<u>Reduction half reaction (cathode):</u>  Al^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-\rightarrow Al(s)     ( ×  2)

Overall cell reaction:  3Mg(s)+2Al^{3+}(aq.)\rightarrow 3Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2Al(s)

Hence, the half cell reactions taking place at cathode and anode is written above.
