Answer: 2 significant figures

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

Rules for significant figures:

Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.

All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 654, 6.54 and 65.4 all have three significant figures.

All zero’s between integers are always significant. For example: 5005, 5.005 and 50.05 all have four significant figures.

All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.0078 has two significant figures.

All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 4.500, 45.00 and 450.0 all have four significant figures.

Thus 0.011 has 2 significant figures.

zmey [24]

Answer:

B 1.87×10^-²

Explanation:

20.1797 g Neon = 1 mol

0.378 g Neon = y

(Cross multiply)

20.1797y= 0.378 x 1

(Make y the subject of the formula)

y = 0.878/ 20.1787

y = 0.0187317

y = 0.0187 approx

y = 1.87 x 10^-²
