Question

Represent 0.783 kg with Sl units having an appropriate prefix Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. P: A Value RO ? Units 0.783 kg

Answer 1

Answer:

783 grams

Explanation:

Here mass is given in kg

Some of the prefixes of the SI units are

1 gram = 10⁻³ kilogram

1 milligram = 10⁻⁶ kilogram

1 microgram = 10⁻⁹ kilogram

1 nanogram = 10⁻¹² kilogram

The number is 0.783

Here, the only solution where the number of significant figures is three is gram. If any other prefix is chosen then the significant figures will increase

$1\ kilogram = 1000\ gram$

$\\\Rightarrow 0.783\ kilogram=0.783\times 1000\ gram\\ =783\ gram$

So, 0.783 kg = 783 grams
