Answer: 3.240576

Explanation:

There are various ways of doing multiplication this is one of them

The wording "keep in mind the rules for significant digits" implies that we are to use these to show where the decimal place goes by approximating the answer. Then conducting the exact calculation.

Consider 0.8 as 8  

×

1

10

3

×

8

×

1

10

=

2.4

So the solution is some where a bit above 2.4

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lets just use the numbers

Multiply both 0.8439 and 3.84 by 1000 to get rid of the decimal place. This makes thing more straight forward. So we end up with:

8439

×

38400

Split up the 38400 into 30000+ 8000 + 400

30000

×

8439

=

253170000

.

8000

8439

−−−−−−−−−  

←

Add

                       

.

324057600

By our approximation we are expecting the form of

2.4

+

small amount

So the answer is  

3.240576

Check by calculator:  

0.8439

If you have 3.01 E24 molecules of CO, how many moles of CO do you have?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer: 5moles

Explanation:

1mole of a substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules.

Then, 1mole of CO also contains 6.02x10^23 molecules.

If 1 mole of CO2 contains 6.02x10^23 molecules, it means Xmol of CO contains 3.01 E24 ie 3.01x10^24 molecules

Xmol of CO = 3.01x10^24 / 6.02x10^23

Xmol = 5moles

what is the molarity of a solution made by dissolving 18.5 grams of NaCL into enough water to reach 450.0ML​
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

0.702M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution, which refers to the molar concentration of that solution can be calculated thus;

Molarity = number of moles (n) ÷ volume (V)

Firstly, we convert 18.5 grams of NaCl to moles using the formula; mole = mass/molar mass

molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

mole = 18.5/58.5

mole = 0.32moles

Volume of water (V) = 450mL = 450/1000 = 0.450L

Molarity = n/V

Molarity = 0.32/0.450

Molarity = 0.702M
