I believe it means that it takes a lot of heat in joules to make silicon vaporize so it stays solid until a great deal of heat has been added. By comparison, water has a latent heat of about 2260 joules per gram so vaporizes much more readily than silicon.
Answer:
6.791
Explanation:
For proper significant figures with addition, you would use the significant figures of the number with lowest decimal place. 6.298 goes to the 10⁻³ place. 0.492712 goes to the 10⁻⁶ place. You will go out to the 10⁻³ place.
6.298 + 0.492712 = 6.790712 ≈ 6.791
