How many significant digits are in the number 125,001?

1 answer:

5 0

The number of significant digits in the number 125,001 are: 6.

Significant digits are always:
1. non-zero
2. Any zeros between two significant digits are significant (for example 5 and 1)
3. A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion only are significant.

Hope I helped!

What was the significance of Thompson’s Plum Pudding model of the atom?

Pani-rosa [81]

The Plum Pudding Model is a model of atomic structure proposed by J.J. Thomson in the late 19th century. Thomson had discovered that atoms are composite objects, made of pieces with positive and negative charge, and that the negatively charged electrons within the atom were very small compared to the entire atom.

What is the relationship between the motion of molecules and the kinetic energy of the particles?

Lorico [155]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to Kinetic Molecular Theory, an increase in temperature will increase the average kinetic energy of the molecules. As the particles move faster, they will likely hit the edge of the container more often.

Why ozone is important to organic chemistry

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Ozone is good in the stratosphere because it absorbs all of the most energetic ultraviolet radiation (UV-C), most of the UV-B radiation and some of the least energetic UV radiation (UV-A). Ozone is “bad” in the troposphere because it is harmful to breathe and is the primary component of smog in summer.

A student measures the mass of a 10m^3 block of gold to be 500 kg what is the density of the gold

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

d = 50 kg/m³

Explanation:

density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

mass = 500 kg

volume = 10m³

$\frac{500}{10}$ = 50

d = 50 kg/m³

25.0cm3 of s saturated potassium hydroxide is neutralized by 35.0cm3 of hydrogen chloride acid of concentration 0.75 mol/dm3. Ca

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Concentration of the original $\rm KOH$ solution: approximately $1.05\; \rm mol \cdot dm^{-3}$ .

Explanation:

Notice that the concentration of the $\rm HCl$ solution is in the unit $\rm mol\cdot dm^{-3}$ . However, the unit of the two volumes is $\rm cm^{3}$ . Convert the unit of the two volumes to $\rm dm^{3}$ to match the unit of concentration.

$\begin{aligned} V(\mathrm{NaOH}) &= 25.0\; \rm cm^{3} \\ &= 25.0\; \rm cm^{3} \times \frac{1\; \rm dm^{3}}{1000\; \rm cm^{3}} \approx 0.0250\; \rm dm^{3} \end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned} V(\mathrm{HCl}) &= 35.0\; \rm cm^{3} \\ &= 35.0\; \rm cm^{3} \times \frac{1\; \rm dm^{3}}{1000\; \rm cm^{3}} \approx 0.0350\; \rm dm^{3} \end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the number of moles of $\rm HCl$ molecules in that $0.0350\; \rm dm^{3}$ of $0.75\; \rm mol \cdot dm^{3}$ $\rm HCl\!$ solution:

$\begin{aligned}n(\mathrm{HCl}) &= c(\mathrm{HCl}) \cdot V(\mathrm{HCl}) \\ &= 0.00350\; \rm dm^{3} \times 0.75\; \rm mol \cdot dm^{3} \\ &\approx 0.02625\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

$\rm HCl$ is a monoprotic acid. In other words, each $\rm HCl\!$ would release up to one proton $\rm H^{+}$ .

On the other hand, $\rm KOH$ is a monoprotic base. Each $\rm KOH\!$ formula unit would react with up to one $\rm H^{+}$ .

Hence, $\rm HCl$ molecules and $\rm KOH\!$ formula units would react at a one-to-one ratio.

${\rm HCl}\, (aq) + {\rm NaOH}\, (aq) \to {\rm NaCl}\, (aq) + {\rm H_2O}\, (l)$ .

Therefore, that $0.02625\; \rm mol$ of $\rm HCl$ molecules would neutralize exactly the same number of $\rm NaOH$ formula units. That is: $n(\mathrm{NaOH}) = 0.02625\; \rm mol$ .

Calculate the concentration of a $\rm NaOH$ solution where $V(\mathrm{NaOH}) = 0.0250\; \rm dm^{3}$ and $n(\mathrm{NaOH}) = 0.02625\; \rm mol$ :

$\begin{aligned}c(\mathrm{NaOH}) &= \frac{n(\mathrm{NaOH})}{V(\mathrm{NaOH})} \\ &= \frac{0.02625\; \rm mol}{0.0250\; \rm dm^{3}}\approx 1.05\; \rm mol \cdot dm^{-3}\end{aligned}$ .
