Answer:

Three(3) significant figures.

Explanation:

Okay, we are given the following values from the question; mass of the liquid = 11.50 grams(g) = four significant figures and the volume of the liquid= 9.03 millitres (mL) = three significant figures. And then we are to find how many significant figures our answer is going to be. Is it three significant figures, four significant figures or even more?. Before deciding what number of significant figures we are going to use for our answer let us find the value for the density first.

The formula for density is; mass/ volume.

==> 11.50 grams/ 9.03 ml. (Since we are not concerned about the units; the question did not specify us to use any unit, so we will let it be).

=> 1.27353266888 (grams/mL).

So, the rule for rounding off says that: (1). If you are operating on addition and subtraction, you should round off based on decimal numbers from your data that has the least and,

(2). If you are operating on multiplication and division, then you should go for your data value that has the least significant figures.

So, the second rule applies here, and from the question the value with the least significant figures is 9.03 which has three(3) significant figures.

To get a result with the best degree of precision, the number of significant figures should be equal to the smallest number of significant figures of the given numbers. In this case, the smallest is 3 as given by the number 9.03 mL.

Therefore density is:

<span>11.50 g / 9.03 mL = 1.27 g/mL</span>

The number of positive changes in the nucleus of an atom is equal to
raketka [301]

Answer:

The number of positive charges in nucleus of an atoms are equal to the atomic number and also positive charges are equal to the negative charges which are electrons in neutral atom.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Neutron and proton:

Neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example

The carbon have six protons and six neutrons so its atomic mass is 12 amu and atomic number is six.

Conociendo el volumen de la solución y la masa del soluto y su masa molar, ¿qué concentración es posible determinar
NISA [10]

Answer:

Conociendo el volumen de solución, masa de soluto y su masa molar, es posible determinar: B) Concentración molar

La molaridad es la relación entre el número de moles de soluto y los litros de solución. Más:

M = No moles de solución de soluto / volumen (L)

Y a su vez los moles de soluto se encuentran por:

No moles de soluto = masa soluto / masa molar soluto
