How many significant figures are in the measurement, 0.005890 g?

1 answer:

6 0

4 significant figures. Use a rule called the Atlantic-Pacific rule where if the period is absent (Atlantic), you would start counting the numbers from right to left. If the period is present (Pacific), then start counting the numbers from left to right. Since the period is present, start from 5 and there are 4 digits including 5.

Calculate and explain (in words) how you would make 90.0 mL of 2.0 M MgSO4 solution from a solid solute MgSO4.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

See Below.

Explanation:

Recall that molarity is defined by moles of solute over liters of solution (mol/L).

Therefore, to make 90.0 mL of 2.0 M MgSO₄, we will need:

$\displaystyle 90.0\text{ mL} \cdot \frac{2.0\text{ mol MgSO$_4$}}{1\text{ L}} \cdot \frac{1\text{ L}}{1000\text{ mL}} = 0.18\text{ mol MgSO$_4$}$

Convert this amount to grams. The molecular weight of MgSO₄ is 120.38 g/mol:

$\displaystyle 0.18\text{ mol MgSO$_4$} \cdot \frac{120.38\text{ g MgSO$_4$}}{1\text{ mol MgSO$_4$}} = 22\text{ g MgSO$_4$}$

Therefore, to make the solution, we can add 22 grams of MgSO₄ into a graduated cylinder, then mix and dilute the solution with distilled water until we reach 90.0 mL.
