Suppose you are asked to find the area of a rectangle that is 2.1-cm wide by 5.6-cm long. Your calculator answer would be 11.76

cm2 . Now suppose you are asked to enter the answer to two significant figures. (Note that if you do not round your answer to two significant figures, your answer will fall outside of the grading tolerance and be graded as incorrect.)

1) ALL non-zero numbers (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) are ALWAYS significant.2) ALL zeroes between non-zero numbers are ALWAYS significant.3) ALL zeroes which are SIMULTANEOUSLY to the right of the decimal point AND at the end of the number are ALWAYS significant.<span>4) ALL zeroes which are to the left of a written decimal point and are in a number >= 10 are ALWAYS significant.

so it will be 11.76 = 12 bc 7 rounds up

What do chemists use percent yield calculations for in the real world?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

C. To determine how efficient reactions are.

D. To determine how much reactant they need.

Explanation:

When you are doing a reaction, you are hoping for a percent yield to close of 100%. You make the reaction and determine how many product you obtain. If you know the percent yield of a reaction you can calculate the amount of reactant you need to obtain a determined amount of product.

Having this in mind:

A. To balance the reaction equation.  false. To calculate percent yield you need to balance the reaction before. You don't use percent yield to balance the reaction

B. To determine how much product they will need.  false. You determine how much product you obtain after the reaction. How much product you need is independent of percent yield

C. To determine how efficient reactions are.  true. A way to determine efficience of a reaction is with percent yield. An efficient reaction has a high percent yield.

D. To determine how much reactant they need. true. If you know percent yield of a reaction you can know how many reactant you must add to obtain  the amount of product you want.

What is the [OH-] in a solution if the [H*] = 1.2 x 10-3 M?
spayn [35]

We know that [OH⁻] * [H⁺] = 10⁻¹⁴

plugging the value of [H⁺]

[OH⁻] * 1.2 * 10⁻³ = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ * (10³/1.2)

[OH⁻] = 833.3 * 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 8.33 * 10⁻¹²

Elements and compounds are more similar to each other than they are to mixtures because:
Dovator [93]

Answer:

elements and compounds can only be liquids or solids, but mixtures can be solids, liquids or gases

Explanation:

Element: A substance that is made up of only one type of atom. Compound: A substance that is made up of more than one type of atom bonded together. Mixture: A combination of two or more elements or compounds which have not reacted to bond together; each part in the mixture retains its own properties.

How many moles are present in 4.7 liters of argon gas as STP
algol [13]
Answer:

0.21mol Ar (g)

Explanation:

To convert from litres to moles at STP we must divide the amount of litres by 22.4.

4.7 / 22.4 = 0.21mol Ar (g)
