948 or 9.48 x 10^2
There are two sets of rules for significant figures
• One set for addition and subtraction
• Another set for multiplication and division
You used the set for multiplication and division.
This problem involves addition and subtraction, and the rule is
The number of places after the decimal point in the answer must be <em>no greater than the number of decimal places in every term</em> in the sum.
Thus, we have
78.9
+890.43
-21.
= 948.33
The "21" term has the fewest digits after the decimal point (none), so the answer must have no digits after the decimal point.
To the correct answer is 948 = 9.48 x 10^2. It has three significant figures.
Answer:
The strength of a bond between two atoms increases as the number of electron pairs in the bond increases.
Explanation:
Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
An intensive property is a bulk property, meaning that it is a local physical property of a system that does not depend on the system size or the amount of material in the system. Examples of intensive properties include temperature, T; refractive index, n; density, ρ; and hardness of an object,specific heat, η.
Physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter. Physical properties are used to observe and describe matter. Physical properties include: appearance, texture, color, odor, melting point, boiling point, density, solubility, polarity, specific heat and many others.
Answer:
During chemical reactions, matter is neither
created nor destroyed; it just changes form.
Explanation:
Answer is: concentratio of H₃O⁺ ions is 4.2·10⁻³ M.<span>
Chemical reaction: HCOOH(aq) + H</span>₂O(l) ⇄ HCOO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).<span>
c(HCOOH) = 0,1 M.
[</span>H₃O⁺] = [HCOO⁻] = x.<span>
[HCOOH] = 0,1 M - x.
</span>Ka = [H₃O⁺] · [HCOO⁻] / [HCOOH].
0,00018 = x² / (0,1 M - x).<span>
Solve quadratic equation: x = </span>[H₃O⁺] = 0,0042 M.
