The solution to the problem (102 900 ÷ 12) + (170 × 1.27) = 8800.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Step 1.

Evaluate the expressions inside the parentheses (PEMDAS)

102 900 ÷ 12 = 8575

170 × 1.27 = 215.9

In multiplication and division problems, your answer can have no more significant figures than the number with the fewest significant figures.

Thus, the underlined digits are not significant, but we keep them in our calculator to avoid roundoff error.

Step 2.

Do the addition (PEMDAS).

8575 + 215.9 = 8790.9

Everything that you add to an insignificant digit gives an insignificant digit as an answer.

Thus, the underlined digits are not significant.

We must drop them and round up the answer to 8800.

8790.00 is the solution to the problem expressed to the correct number of significant figures 102900/12 +170•1.27.

Explanation:

Given:

102900/12 +170•1.27 ( . implies multiplication and '/' is for division)

to solve this BODMAS rule will be applied.

According to BODMAS, first simplfy the equation

\frac{102900}{12} + 170 x 1.27

8575 + 170 x 1.27

now multiplication will be done:

8575 + 215.9

= 8790 is the answer.

the solution is based on the BODMAS rule which tells which mathematical operation is to be performed on the given set of numbers or equations.

Given an equilibrium constant value of 7.2 x 10-4 it is false to say that the reaction proceeds essentially to completion.

<h3>What is the equilibrium constant?</h3>

In a reaction, we can judge using the value of the equilibrium constant weather or not the reaction moves on to completion. If the reaction moves up to completion, it the follows that the value of the equilibrium constant ought to be large.

On the other hand, when we have a case that the equilibrium constant is small and is not so large, then the reaction does not proceed essentially to completion.

When salt is dissolved in water, what happens to the water
choli [55]

Answer:

<em>When salt is dissolved in water</em>, many physical properties change, among them the so called colligative properties:

  • The vapor pressure of water decreases,
  • The boiling point increases,
  • The freezing point decreases, and
  • Osmotic pressure appears.

Explanation:

Colligative properties are the physical properties of the solvents whose change is determined by the number of particles (moles or ions) of the solute added.

The colligative properties are: vapor pressure, boiling point, freezing point, and osmotic pressure.

<u>Vapor pressure</u>:

The vapor pressure is the pressure exerted by the vapor of a lquid over its surface, in a closed vessel.

The vapor pressure increases when a solute is added, because the presence of the solute causes less solvent molecules to be near the surface ready to escape to the vapor phase, which means that the vapor pressure is lower.

<u>Boiling point</u>:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure. Since we have seen that the vapor pressure of water decreases when a solute occupies part of the surface, now more temperature will be required for the water molecules reach the atmospheric pressure. So, the boiling point increases when salt is dissolved in water.

<u>Freezing point</u>:

The freezing point is the temperarute at which the vapor pressure of the liquid and the solid are equal. Since, the vapor pressure of water with salt is lower than that of the pure water, the vapor pressure of the liquid and solid with salt will be equal at a lower temperature. Hence, the freezing point is lower (decreases).

<u>Osmotic pressure</u>:

Osmotic pressure is the additional pressure that must be exerted over a solution to make that the vapor pressure of the solvent in the solution equals the vapor pressure of the pure solvent. This additional pressure is proportional to the concentration of the solute: the higher the salt concentration the higher the osmotic pressure.
