Answer : The number of significant figures are, two

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.
  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.

The give number is, 0.078

By using rule 4, we get the number of significant figures which are '7' and '8' that means the number of significant figures are, 2

Hence, the number of significant figures are, two

Write a balanced equation for its combustion reaction.
laila [671]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

C₅H₁₂O(l)+15/2O₂(g)→5CO₂(g)+6H₂O(l)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of the hydrocarbon in question is;

C₅H₁₂O(l)+15/2O₂(g)→5CO₂(g)+6H₂O(l)

  • A balanced chemical equation is one in which the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the equation.
  • In this case;
  • Reactant side has; 5 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 16 Oxygen atoms
  • Product side has; 5 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 16 Oxygen atoms
  • An equation is balanced by putting appropriate coefficients on reactants and products involved in the reaction.
  • An equation is balanced so as to obey the law of conservation of mass.

4 Al + 3 O2 --&gt; 2 Al2O3
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.4 moles of Aluminum

Explanation:

Data

moles of Al = ?

moles of Al₂O₃ = 3.7

Balanced chemical reaction

                4 Al  +  3 O₂  ⇒  2 Al₂O₃

To solve this problem use proportions and cross multiplication. Use the coefficients of the balanced chemical equation.

                4 moles of Aluminum ----------------- 2 moles of Al₂O₃

                 x                                  ----------------- 3.7 moles of Al₂O₃

                            x = (3.7 x 4) / 2

                            x = 14.8 / 2

                            x = 7.4 moles of Aluminum

When an ionic compound dissolves in water:
Airida [17]

Answer:

d. each of the above (A, B, and C) occurs.

Explanation:

When an ionic species dissolves in water , the ionic compound dissociates into cation and anion , and the cation interacts with the negative end of the water molecules , and the anion interacts with the positive end of the water molecule .

During the process of dissolution , the interaction between , solvent - solute overcome the interaction between solute - solute molecules .

Hence , From the question , all the statement given are correct .
