The mass of one atom of carbon in the correct number of significant figures is 1.99×10-²³. There are four significant figures each in both the atomic mass of carbon (12.01 g) and Avogadro's number, so the answer must also have 4 significant figures. The operation is shown below:
<span>12.01 / (6.022x10²³) = 1.994x10</span>₋²³<u />
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. For metamorphism to occur, the parent rock must be in solid form. Metamorphism is the alteration of the structure of a rock by factors like heat and temperature so it must be the material should be in solid form.
