Number of significant figures will be 1

Given:

weight of acetylsalicylic acid = 0. 4g

To Find:

significant figures

Solution: Significant figures are the digits of value which carry meaning towards the resolution of the measurement. They are also called significant figures in chemistry. All the experimental measurements have some kind of uncertainty associated with them.

When we convert 0.4g acetylsalicylic acid to mg we get value 400mg

when we convert 400mg to gram we get value of 0.4 gram

Since 0 before a decimal is not significant so there is only one significant figure that is 4

The heat of fusion for a substance is 122 joules per gram. How many joules of heat are need to melt 7.50 grams of this substance
daser333 [38]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

915 Joules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The heat of fusion is the heat that is required to convert a given mass of a substance from solid state to liquid state without change in temperature.
  • In this case, we are given specific heat of a substance as 122 joules per gram
  • It means that amount of heat equivalent to 122 joules is required to change 1 gram of the substance from solid state to liquid state.
  • Therefore, we can determine the amount of heat needed to change 7.5 grams of the substance from solid to liquid state.

1 g = 122 Joules

7.5 g = ?

       = 122 × 7.5

      = 915 Joules

Thus, 7.5 g of the substance at its melting point will require 915 Joules of heat to melt.

Copper is formed when aluminum reacts with copper (II) sulfate in a single-replacement reaction. How many moles of copper can be
serg [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the limiting reactant is CuSO₄ and 0.975 moles of Cu were obtained

Explanation:

moles of Copper = ?

mass of Aluminum = 29 g

mass of CuSO₄ = 156 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Balanced Chemical reaction

                  3 CuSO₄   +  2 Al   ⇒   3 Cu   +  Al₂(SO₄)₃

Calculate the moles of reactants

CuSO₄ = 64 + 32 + (16 x 4) = 160g

Al = 27 g

                160 g of CuSO₄  ----------------- 1 mol

                156 g                   -----------------  x

                      x = (156 x 1) / 160

                      x = 0.975 moles

               27 g of Al -------------------------- 1 mol

               29 g of Al -------------------------- x

                x = (29 x 1)/27

                x = 1.07 moles

Calculate proportions to find the limiting reactant

Theoretical     3 moles CuSO₄/2 moles Al = 1.5 moles

Experimental  0.975 moles CuSO₄/1.07 moles = 0.91

The experimental proportion was lower than the theoretical proportion that means that the limiting reactant is CuSO₄.      

                    3 moles of CuSO₄ ------------------ 3 moles of Cu

                 0.975 moles of CuSO₄ ---------------  x

                         x = (0.975 x 3)/3

                        x = 0.975 moles of Cu were obtained.

An airplane travels with a constant velocity of 210 m/s and in the upper atmosphere where the plane is traveling there is a wind
kolezko [41]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete the options are missing

Determine the resultant velocity for the plane when it is travelling

i) To the east

ii) To the west

answer :i)  270 i

             ii)  -150 i

Explanation:

velocity of Airplane = 210 m/s

wind velocity = 60 m/s to the east

The resultant velocity for the plane when it is travelling  

let the velocity of the wind = V2

           velocity of the plane = v1

i) The resultant velocity for the plane when travelling to the east

Vr = V2 i  + V1 i

Vr= 60i + 210i  = 270i

ii) resultant velocity when the plane is travelling to the west

Vr = - V1 i + V2i

     = -210i  + 60 i = -150 i
