The best answer is the second statement. It is considered as a universal solvent since most substances dissolve in water. And comparing it to other liquids, it is the one who dissolves a wide range of substances. Also, it is an important substance for every living thing.

What is the solution to the problem expressed to the correct number of significant figures?
Fed [463]

Answer:

(102 900 ÷ 12) + (170 × 1.27) = 8800

Step 1. Evaluate the expressions inside the parentheses (PEMDAS)

102 900 ÷ 12 = 8575

170 × 1.27 = 215.9

In multiplication and division problems, your answer can have no more significant figures than the number with the fewest significant figures.

Thus, the underlined digits are not significant, but we keep them in our calculator to avoid roundoff error.

Step 2. Do the addition (PEMDAS).

  8575

+    215.9

= 8790.9

Everything that you add to an insignificant digit gives an insignificant digit as an answer.

Thus, the underlined digits are not significant.

We must drop them and round up the answer to 8800.

An organic acid is composed of carbon (45.45%), hydrogen (6.12%), and oxygen (48.44%). Its molar mass is 132.12 g/mol. Determine
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

C4H8O4

Explanation:

To determine the molecular formula, first, let us obtain the empirical formula. This is illustrated below:

From the question given, we obtained the following information:

C = 45.45%

H = 6.12%

O = 48.44%

Divide the above by their molar mass

C = 45.45/12 = 3.7875

H = 6.12/1 = 6.12

O = 48.44/16 = 3.0275

Divide by the smallest

C = 3.7875/3.0275 = 1

H = 6.12/3.0275 = 2

O = 3.0275/3.0275 = 1

The empirical formula is CH2O

The molecular formula is given by [CH2O]n

[CH2O]n = 132.12

[12 + (2x1) + 16]n = 132.12

30n = 132.12

Divide both side by the coefficient of n i.e 30

n = 132.12/30 = 4

The molecular formula is [CH2O]n = [CH2O]4 = C4H8O4
