Taking into account the scientific notation,  the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.

<h3>Scientific notation</h3>

First, remember that scientific notation is a quick way to represent a number using powers of base ten.

The numbers are written as a product:

a×10ⁿ

where:

  • a is a real number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10, to which a decimal point is added after the first digit if it is a non-integer number.
  • n is an integer, which is called an exponent or an order of magnitude. Represents the number of times the comma is shifted. It is always an integer, positive if it is shifted to the left, negative if it is shifted to the right.
<h3 /><h3>Subtraction in scientific notation</h3>

You want to subtract two numbers in scientific notation. It should be noted that when the numbers to be added do not have the same base 10 exponent, the base 10 power with the highest exponent must be found. In this case, the highest exponent is 5.

Then all the values ​​are expressed as a function of the base 10 exponent with the highest exponent. In this case: 5.00×10⁴=0.500×10⁵

Taking the quantities to the same exponent, all you have to do is subtract what was previously called the number "a". In this case:

7.00×10⁵ - 0.500×10⁵= (7.00- 0.500)×10⁵= 6.5×10⁵

Finally, the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.

Which statement is true about a base when it reacts with another substance?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:   a. It receives a hydrogen ion.

Explanation:  Base is a species which is capable of donating its negative quantity and accepting the positive one.

For example, ammonia is considered as a base because it is capable of donating its lone pairs of electrons and can accept an proton as well.

Here, out of the given options, Hydrogen H^{+} is a proton which is acting as a positive species and hydroxide ion OH^{-} is a negative species.

Thus, option (A) is the correct answer as it will receive a hydrogen ion from another base making itself a conjugate acid.

Which methods would be suitable for determining the concentration of an aqueous solution of KMnO4? I. Visible spectrophotometry
Elodia [21]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Since the solution have an observable color, that means that it absorbs light in the visible region hence it can be determined by colorimetry. Secondly, KMnO4 is a reducing agent which can be titrated against an oxidizing agent and it's concentration accurately determined.

A compound with chemical formula na2cx3 has formula mass 106 amu .. what is the atomic mass of element x
maria [59]

The element "X" is "O" (oxygen).

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

Given,

Chemical formula = Na₂CX₃

Formula mass = 106 amu

Molar mass of Na = 23 amu

Molar mass of C = 12 amu

To find,

Element X =?

We will equate the equation as follows,

2(23) + 12 + 3(y) = 106

46 + 12 + 3y =106

58 + 3y = 106

3y = 106 - 58

3y = 48

y = 48/3

y = 16

We know that Oxygen has molecular mass of 16. Therefore the element "X" is "O".
