How many significant figures does the following number contain: 385.01

Chemistry
1 answer:
dusya [7]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

5 significant figures

Explanation:

  • Zeros that come before any non-zero digits are never significant.

  • Zeros that are in between any non-zero digits are always significant.

  • Zeros that come after any non-zero digit are ONLY significant if a decimal point in present somewhere in the number. (In this case there is a decimal point, but there aren't any zeros at the end of this number.)

I have underlined the significant figures in this number:

<u>3</u> <u>8</u> <u>5</u> . <u>0</u> <u>1</u>

The density of a metal is 11.4 g/cm3. How much volume (in cm3) would a sample of 30.5 g have?
julia-pushkina [17]

<u>The Concept:</u>

We are given the density of a sample of the metal = 11.4 grams / cm³

and we need to find the volume occupied by a sample of 30.5 grams

For this solution, we will use dimensional analysis

from the given information, we can also say that the density of the metal is:

1 cm³ / 11.4 grams

If we multiply this value by 30.5 grams, the 'grams' in the numerator and the denominator will cancel out and we will be left with the volume occupied by 30.5 grams of the metal

<u>Solving for the volume:</u>

\frac{ 1 cm^{3} }{11.4 grams}  X  30.5 grams  = (30.5 / 11.4) cm³

Volume of 30.5 grams of the sample = 2.68 cm³

What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

<em>What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron </em>is<u><em> energy</em></u><em>.</em>

Explanation:

The normal state of the atoms, where all the electrons are occupying the lowest possible energy level, is called ground state.

The <em>valence electrons</em> are the electrons that occupy the outermost shell, this is the electrons in the highest main energy level (principal quantum number) of the atom.

So, a <em>nonvalence electron</em> occupies an orbital with less energy than what a valence electron does; in consequence, in order to a nonvalence electron jump from its lower energy level to the higher energy level of a valence electron, the former has to absorb (gain) energy.

This new state is called excited state and is temporary: the electron promoted to the higher energy level will emit the excess energy, in the form of light (photons), to come back to the lower energy level and so the atom return to the ground state.
