Explanation:
Electronegativity is the property of an atom that attracts the shared pair of an electron to itself. There is a trend in the periodic table.
While moving down in a group, the electronegativity decreases. This is due to the reason that as we move down the number of shells added and so the electron become very far from the pull of the nucleus.
As we move across a period the electronegativity increases. This is because of the no. of charge on the nucleus increase.
Answer:
57.6
Explanation:
"Significant figures" refer to figures that have an actual contribution to a <em>number's value.</em>
They refer to all digits<u> except those with</u><em><u> </u></em><em><u>"leading zero,"</u></em> which means having a zero digit before a specific number. For example, in the number 0234, the significant figures are<em> 234. </em>
The rule for adding and subtracting significant figures is to <em>round off the answer to the least number of decimal places</em>. However, when it comes to multiplying and dividing significant figures, you have<em> round off the answer to the least number of significant digits.</em>
<u>Let's solve.</u>
21.4
+15
17.17
<u> 4.003</u>
57.573
Let's now round off to the<em> least number of decimal places</em>, which is the <em>tenths. </em>Since 0.5 is followed by a number greater than 5, we have to round it off to 6. Therefore, the answer is: 57.6
