Answer:

3 significant figures are in 400..

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

Rules for significant figures:

  1. Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
  2. All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 654, 6.54 and 65.4 all have three significant figures.
  3. All zero’s between integers are always significant. For example: 5005, 5.005 and 50.05 all have four significant figures.
  4. All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.0078 has two significant figures.
  5. All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 4.500, 45.00 and 450.0 all have four significant figures.
  6. In a non decimal number like 30 , there are 1 significant figure but number in which decimal is written after zero then all the zeros will become significant.

Given = 400.

As we can see that decimal point is present  after 0 which makes the all the zeros of the number significant.

So, significant figures are in 400. is 3.

Answer:

There are 3 significant figures in 400.

Explanation:

All non-zero digits are significant, therefore the 4 is significant. Zeros after the number are only significant if there is a decimal point in the number, therefore the two zeros are also significant.

The volume of a gas at 17.5 psi decreases from 1.8L to 750mL. What is the new pressure of the gas in arm?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

P₂ = 2.88 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 1.8 L

Final volume = 750 mL

Initial pressure = 17.5 Psi

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

We will convert the units first:

Initial pressure = 17.5  /14.696 = 1.2 atm

Final volume = 750 mL ×1L/1000L = 0.75 L

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

1.2 atm × 1.8 L =  P₂  ×0.75 L

P₂ = 2.16 atm. L/ 0.75 L

P₂ = 2.88 atm

Consider these elements: N, Mg, O, F, Al. a. Write the electron configuration for each element. b. Arrange the elements in order
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

N- 1s2 2s2 2p3

Mg- 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2

O- 1s2 2s2 2p4

F- 1s2 2s2 2p5

Al-1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1

Explanation:

Order of decreasing atomic radius

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Order of increasing ionization energy

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Reason:

Atomic radius decreases with increase in nonmetallic character. Looking at the electronic configurations, as effective nuclear charge increases, the atom becomes smaller and the attractive force between the nucleus and the outermost electrons increases. Hence, the radius of the atom decreases and ionization energy increases. Note that the addition of more orbital electrons implies addition of more nuclear charge since the both must exactly balance for the atom to remain electrically neutral. The more the electrons in the outermost shell, the higher the first ionization energy.
