2.524 g (5.1 × 106 g) ÷ (6.85 × 103 g) = ? How many significant figures should the result have?

2 answers:

6 0

The correct answer is Three. Solving the given expression we get,

2.524 g (5.1 × 106 g) ÷ (6.85 × 103 g) = 1364.47÷ (6.85 × 103 g) = 1364.47÷ 705.55 = 1.93
Here, the number of significant figures is three. Thus, the result should have three significant figures.

Explanation:

To solve the equation, we will first multiply the numerator and denominator separately and then divide it, to attain the final result.

The equation given is:

$2.524g(5.1\times 106g)\div (6.85\times 103g)=1364.4744g^2\div 705.55g\\\\\Rightarrow 1.933\approx 1.9$

Whenever multiplication and division are involved, the answer must not contain, more number of significant figures as there are in the least precise term.

Of all the given terms, the least precise number has 2 significant numbers. Therefore, the answer would have 2 significant figures and the final answer will be 1.9

Fofino [41]

According to Dalton's Law, in a mixture of non-reacting gasses, thetotal pressure exerted is the sum of the partial pressures of the component gasses. In more complicated circumstances, equilibrium states come into effect, but fortunately for us, oxygen is non-reactive with water vapor.

A block of iron has a mass of 826 g. What is the volume of the block of iron whose density at 25°C is 7.9 ?

kolezko [41]

Answer:

104.56cm³

Explanation:

Mass=826g

Density =7.9g/cm³

Volume =Mass /Density

Volume =826/7.9

Volume =104.56cm³

Which biogeochemical cycle is the only one that does not include the atmosphere?

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Phosphorus cycle

Explanation:

Biogeochemical cycle, any of the natural pathways by which essential elements of living matter are circlated.

There are four types of biogeochemical cycle, they are ; water cycle,carbon cycle,nitrogen cycle and phosphorous cycle

Carbon cycle is the cycle in which photosynthesis and cellular respiration take place.

Water cycle involves transpiration.

Nitrogen cycle Is the cycle that is dependent upon bacteria for nitrogen fixation and denitrification.

Phosphorus cycle is one of the slowest biogeochemical cycle. It does not stay in the atmosphere, because it is normally in a liquid state at room temperature. It does not include the atmosphere.

Calculate the number of grams of oxygen gas in a 24L container at STP

romanna [79]

There are 34 g of oxygen in the container.

We can use the Ideal Gas Law to solve this problem.

$pV = nRT$

But $n = \frac{m}{M}$ , so

$pV = \frac{m}{M}RT$ and

$m = \frac{pVM}{RT}\\$

STP is 0 °C and 1 bar, so

$m = \frac{\text{1 bar} \times \text{24 L} \times 32.00 \text{ g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}}{\text{0.083 14 } \text{bar}\cdot\text{L}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1}\times\text{273.15 K} } = \textbf{34 g}\\$
