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!!!

What is the energy of a wave with wavelength of 4.2 x 10-7 m. (Hint: Calculate for frequency first.)
erik [133]

Answer:

Option B. 4.74×10¯¹⁹ J.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Wavelength (λ) = 4.2×10¯⁷ m

Energy (E) =.?

Next, we shall determine the frequency of the wave. This can be obtained as follow:

Wavelength (λ) = 4.2×10¯⁷ m

Velocity (v) = constant = 3×10⁸ m/s

Frequency (f) =.?

v = λf

3×10⁸ = 4.2×10¯⁷ × f

Divide both side by 4.2×10¯⁷

f = 3×10⁸ / 4.2×10¯⁷

f = 7.143×10¹⁴ s¯¹

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 7.143×10¹⁴ s¯¹.

Finally, we shall determine the energy of the wave using the following formula

E = hf

Where

E is the energy.

h is the Planck's constant

f is the frequency

Thus, the enery of the wave can be obtained as follow:

Frequency (f) = 7.143×10¹⁴ s¯¹.

Planck's constant = 6.63×10¯³⁴ Js

Energy (E) =..?

E = hf

E = 6.63×10¯³⁴ × 7.14×10¹⁴

E = 4.74×10¯¹⁹ J

Therefore, the energy of the wave is 4.74×10¯¹⁹ J.

What is the name of the ionic compound AlBr3?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: Correct name will be is aluminum bromide

Explanation:

In a molecular formula ,AlBr_3

Aluminium atoms present = 1  

Bromine atoms present = 3

Charge on aluminium is +3 and charge on bromine is -1.

While naming:

  • Name of the cation is written first. Simple name of the element is written
  • After name of cation name of an anions written with suffix 'ide' in the end.

So, the name of AlBr_3 will be aluminium bromide.
