How many significant figures are in the measurement 40,500 mg?

Chemistry
1 answer:
schepotkina [342]4 years ago
3 0

b) three

this is because all integers are sig figs, and all numbers between integers are sig figs. This makes the 40,5 part of 40,500 significant. Place holder zeroes that are not after a decimal are not significant, so the last two zeroes of the number are not significant.

what is the amount of heat energy released when 50.0 grams of water is cooled from 20.0 degrees Celcius to 10.0 degrees celcius
andre [41]

Answer:

The amount of heat released when 50 g of water cooled from 20°C to 10°C will be equal to  - 2093 J.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water = 50 g

Initial temperature= T1 = 20°C

Final temperature= T2 = 10°C

Specific heat of water= c = 4.186 J/g. °C

Amount of heat released = Q= ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m. C.  ΔT

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 10°C - 20°C

ΔT = -10°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

Q = m. C.  ΔT

Q = 50 g .  4.186 J/g. °C . -10°C

Q =  - 2093 J

The amount of heat released when 50 g of water cooled from 20°C to 10°C will be equal to  - 2093 J.

What's a word equation
Yuri [45]
A word equation is a chemical reaction described using words.
A common example is the act of photosynthesis - the process plants use to make glucose (sugar) to use as 'food'.
Plants convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose.
A word equation to express this is:
Water + Carbon Dioxide → Glucose + Oxygen
The other type of equation is a symbol equation - this uses the symbols of the elements instead of the common names:
H₂O + CO₂ → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂
There is also a balanced version:
6H₂O + 6CO₂ → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
<em>If you want information on the balanced symbol equations, feel free to PM me.</em>

Given the equation 2mg(s) + o2(g) → 2mgo(s) + 72.3 kj, how much heat is involved in the production of 5.0 mol of mgo? question 2
Rudik [331]
The heat is involved   in the  production of 5.0 mol of MgO  is   180 Kj

               calculation

2 Mg (s)   +O2 → 2 MgO

From  the  equation  above two  moles    of MgO  is used  therefore   

72.3   is for   2   moles

that is   72.3  kj =  2moles
                  ?      = 5  moles 

by  cross  multiplication

= 72.3  kj × 5/2     = 180  Kj

How is this effect of dissolved<br>substances important in nature?​
dimaraw [331]

Explanation:

Water is called the "universal solvent" because it is capable of dissolving more substances than any other liquid. This is important to every living thing on earth. It means that wherever water goes, either through the air, the ground, or through our bodies, it takes along valuable chemicals, minerals, and nutrients.
