Answer:
4 significant figures
Explanation:
Significant figures are the units/digits within a number that make the number more accurate and precise.
All digits (except for 0) are always significant. Therefore, all the digits in 43.55 are significant. Since there are 4 digits in the given number, there are 4 significant figures.
The complete balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis in plants is:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O ----> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
Based on the balanced equation the molar ratio between H₂O and C₆H₁₂O₆ is 6:1
This means that 6 moles of H₂O is need for every 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆
9.31 mol of C₆H₁₂O₆ x (6 moles of H₂O / 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆) = 55.86 moles of H₂O
Thus the moles of H₂O need is 55.86

Answer:
<em><u>Rows in the periodic table are called periods</u></em>. As one moves from left to right in a given period, the chemical properties of the elements slowly change. <em><u>Columns in the periodic table are called groups</u></em>. Elements in a given group in the periodic table share many similar chemical and physical properties
Explanation:
Answer:
(a) 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m
(b) 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m
Explanation:
(a) The de Broglie wavelength is given by the expression:
λ = h/p = h/mv
where h is plancks constant, p is momentum which is equal to mass times velocity.
We have all the data required to calculate the wavelength, but first we will have to convert the velocity to m/s, and the mass to kilograms to work in metric system.
v = 19.8 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/s ) x ( 1 h / 3600 s ) = 8.85 m/s
m = 232 lb x ( 0.454 kg/ lb ) = 105.33 kg
λ = h/ mv = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / ( 105.33 kg x 8.85 m/s ) = 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m
(b) For this part we have to use the uncertainty principle associated with wave-matter:
ΔpΔx > = h/4π
mΔvΔx > = h/4π
Δx = h/ (4π m Δv )
Again to utilize this equation we will have to convert the uncertainty in velocity to m/s for unit consistency.
Δv = 0.1 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/mi ) x ( 1 h/ 3600 s )
= 0.045 m/s
Δx = h/ (4π m Δv ) = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / (4π x 105.33 kg x 0.045 m/s )
= 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m
This calculation shows us why we should not be talking of wavelengths associatiated with everyday macroscopic objects for we are obtaining an uncertainty of 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m for the position of the fullback.
