Answer : The answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is defined as the way or representation of expressing the number that are too big or too small that is written in the decimal form. That means always written in the power of 10 form.

For example : 8000 is written as, 8.0\times 10^3  in this notation, the significant figure is, 1 but 0.8\times 10^4  in this notation, the significant figures are, 2

The given problem are :

\frac{1.8\times 10^{-2}}{9\times 10^2}=0.2\times 10^{-4}

According to the divide and multiplication rules of scientific figures, the final answer is only as precise as the value with the least number of significant figures.

Hence, the answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

The result of division (1.8 x 10⁻²) ÷ (9 x 10²) is 2.10⁻⁵ (cause the result must have 1 significant number)

<h3><em>Further Explanation</em></h3>

Significant numbers are obtained from measurement results of exact numbers and the last number estimated

This is called significant numbers

The scientific notation can be described as:

a, ... x 10ⁿ

where the power of n is an integer, and the coefficient a is a real number

Rules for significant numbers in general:

  • 1. All non-zero numbers are significant numbers
  • 2. a zero which is located between two non-zero numbers including a significant number
  • 3. all zeros are located in the final row written behind the decimal point of the include significant number
  • 4. zero decimal point is the not significant number
  • 5. In multiplication and division of important numbers, the final results look at the least number of significant numbers.

In the question, it is known that

(1.8 x 10⁻²) ÷ (9 x 10²) has 2(1.8) and 1(9) significant numbers, so the division of both produces 1 significant number

So that we did the significant number then proceed with rank number

  • 1. Division of siginificant numbers

1.8: 9 = 0.2

  • 2. Division of rank numbers

10⁻²: 10² = 10⁻⁴

So the result = 0.2.10⁻⁴

In the form of scientific notation, it becomes: 2.10⁻⁵

The result has one significant number, which is number 2

What does the number next to ions signify?
dusya [7]
<span>The number next to the simbol of the element ions (as a superscript) means the number of charges of the ion. For example N (+),, where (+) is a superscript means that the charge of the ion is 1+. S(2-), where (2-) is a superscript, means that the charge of the ion is (2-). OH (-), where (-) is a superscript, means that the charge of OH ion is (1-) . </span>

Assume the molality of isoborneol in your product is 0.275 mol/kg. What is the melting point of your impure sample given that th
aliina [53]

Answer:

168°C is the melting point of your impure sample.

Explanation:

Melting point of pure camphor= T =179°C

Melting point of sample = T_f = ?

Depression in freezing point = \Delta T_f

Depression in freezing point  is also given by formula:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

K_f = The freezing point depression constant

m = molality of the sample  = 0.275 mol/kg

i = van't Hoff factor

We have: K_f = 40°C kg/mol

i = 1 (  non electrolyte)

\Delta T_f=1\times 40^oC kg/mol\times 0.275 mol/kg

\Delta T_f=11^oC

\Delta T_f=T- T_f

T_f=T- \Delta T_f=179^oC-11^oC=168^oC

168°C is the melting point of your impure sample.
