Answer:

0.0882

8,820

Explanation:

0.0882  is one . The significant figures are 882. We ignore the leading zeroes.

0.8820 has 4 significant figures.

8.820 also has 3 significant figures (we do not count the trailing zero).

882.0 has 4 significant figures.

8820 and 0.0882 have three sig figs

When a number has zeros in it I struggled a lot to determine if it what a sig fig or not. This is how I remember it:

If a zero is a sandwich between normal numbers it IS a sig fig

Zero's after the decimal ARE sig figs

***IMPORTANT! There is an exception to this one which I'll talk about next :)

Leading zeros (I believe that is what they are called) are NOT sig figs. This would be like the zeros in the following numbers:

0.2

0.03

0.000000000000000000006

If there are zeros after normal numbers and there is NO DECIMAL it is NOT a sig fig.  This would be like the zeros in the following numbers:

630

3, 000

536, 329,600,000

Take a look at the other numbers:

0.8820 <<<This has 4 sig. figs.

882.0 <<<This has 4 sig. figs.

***Remember that if there is a pure decimal the zero in front of the decimal is NOT a sig fig and just a place holder. It isn't necessary and can always be taken away

Hope this made sense and helped!!!

How does the Sun get energy?
Nikolay [14]
The sun generates energy from a process called nuclear fusion. During nuclear fusion, the high pressure and temperature in the sun's core cause nuclei to separate from their electrons. Hydrogen nuclei fuse to form one helium atom.

17. Write the molecular balanced equation for the recovering of copper metal. 18. Write the complete ionic balanced equation for
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

17. it goes from solid copper to aqueous copper:

Cu(s) --> Cu₂(aq) + 2e⁻

18. complete ionic:

Cu(s) --> Cu₂(aq) + 2e⁻

19. net ionic, must include only reacting species, so

Cu(s) --> Cu₂(aq) + 2e⁻

20. this type of reaction is dissolution reaction(redox reaction)

copper reduced from Cu²⁺ to Cu.

ch sulfide (ZnS) occurs in the zinc blende crystal structure, (a) If 254 g of ZnS contains 170 g of Zn, what is the mass ratio o
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide is 85:42.

2.5559 kg of Zn are in 3.82 kg of ZnS.

Explanation:

a) Mass of zinc sulfide = 254 g

Mass of zinc in a zinc sulfide sample = 170 g

Mass of sulfide in zinc sulfide sample = x

254 g = 170 g+ x

x = 84 g

The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide:

\frac{170 g}{84 g}=\frac{85}{42}

b) Mass of zincsulfide sample = 3.83 kg

The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide is 85:42.

Let the mass of zinc and sulfide be 85x and 42x respectively:

85 x+ 42 x=3.82 kg

x =0.03007 kg

Mass of an zinc= 85x=85 × 0.03007 kg= 2.5559 kg
