It indicates the number of moles of reactants and products

Explanation:

The coefficients in front of the reactants and products in a chemical reaction represents the number of moles of reactants and products.

Every reaction is made up of equal number of moles of reactants and products. Thus, chemical equations are written in such a way to obey the law of conservation of matter.

The numbers used are usually whole numbers and the are very important in stoichiometry.

morpeh [17]

Explanation:

1.) 175 km to μm

$1 km=10^9 \mu m$

$175 km=175\times 10^9\mu m=1.75\times 10^{11} \mu m$

3.) 385 nm to dm

$1 nm=10^{-8} dm$

$385 nm=385\times 10^{-8} dm=3.85\times 10^{-6} dm$

5.) 492 μm to m

1 μm = $10^{-6} m$

$492 \μm=492\times 10^{-6} m=4.92\times 10^{-4} m$

7.) $52\times 10^3$ dm to mm

1 dm = 100 mm

$52\times 10^3 dm=52\times 10^3\times 100 mm=5.2\times 10^{6}dm$

9.) $321\times 10^{35}$ mm to km

$1 mm = 10^{-6} km$

$321\times 10^{35} mm=321\times 10^{35}\times 10^{-6} km=3.21\times 10^{31} km$

11.) $456\times 10^3$ m to km

m = 0.001 km

$456\times 10^3m =456\times 10^3 m\times 0.001 km=456 km$

13.) $422\times 10^3$ m to nm

$1 m = 10^{9} nm$

$422\times 10^3 m=422\times 10^3\times 10^{9} nm=4.22\times 10^{14} nm$

15.) $4.87\times 10^{30}$ m to pm

$1 m = 10^{12} pm$

$4.87\times 10^{30} m=4.87\times 10^{30}\times 10^{12} pm=4.82\times 10^{42} pm$

17.) $5.26\times 10^3$ m to um

1 m = $10^{6} \mu m$

$5.26\times 10^3 m=5.26\times 10^3\times 10^6 \mu m=5.26\times 10^{9} \mu m$

19.) $1.25\times 10^{35}$ m to Mm

1 m = $10^{-6} Mm$

$1.25\times 10^{35} m=1.25\times 10^{35}\times 10^{-6} Mm=1.25\times 10^{-29} Mm$

21.) $4.22\times 10^3$ Tm to nm

$1 Tm = 10^{21} nm$

$4.22\times 10^3 Tm=4.22\times 10^3\times 10^{21} nm=4.22\times 10^{24} nm$

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

The invariant mass of an electron is approximately9. 109×10−31 kilograms, or5. 489×10−4 atomic mass units. On the basis of Einstein's principle of mass–energy equivalence, this mass corresponds to a rest energy of 0.511 MeV.

The theoretical yield of Cl2 from certain starting amounts of MnO2 and HCl was calculated as 60.25 g and 65.02 g, respectively.

hoa [83]

The actual yield is 43 g Cl₂.

The limiting reactant was MnO₂ because it gave the smaller mass of Cl₂.

∴ The theoretical yield is 60.25 g Cl₂.

% yield = actual yield/theoretical yield × 100 %

Actual yield = theoretical yield × (% yield/100 %) = 60.25 g × (72 %/100%) = 43 g
