How many significant digits are 6.3590x10 7 mm

Chemistry

Svet_ta [14]3 years ago

If you go by the decimal there should be 5 significant digits because 0 is a trailing zero and matters since it comes after a decimal. however if you do 

6.3590 x 10 ^7 = 63590000 then you would only have 4 significant digits because there is no longer a decimal to make the zero after the 9, significant. 

Hope this helps!

Answer:

There are 5 significant digits

Explanation:

Significant digits are essentially numbers that contribute directly towards a measurement. There are certain rules to be followed while identifying the number of significant digits in a measurement, these include:

1) Non-zero digits are significant

2) Leading zeros are insignificant

3) Trailing zeros only after a decimal point are significant

4) Zeros in between non-zero digits are significant

The given value is:

6.3590*10⁷

There are 4 non-zero digits + 1 trailing zero after the decimal.

Therefore, significant digits are 4 +  1 = 5

How can you find the number of neutrons that are in an atom of an element
Temka [501]

Answer:

You just have to take the periodic table of the elements, take the element that interests you. Then, you look at the formula of the element, at the top left you find the number of neutrons and protons and at the bottom left you find the number of protons. Then you just have to make the number from the top left minus the number from the bottom left.

Explain why can two nonmetals bond together, but two metals cannot? A) Metals will only form covalent bonds. B) Nonmetals can sh
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: C) Non-metals can share pairs of electrons and form covalent bonds

Explanation: The principal reason why it is non-metals that can form covalent bonds is because of their electronegativities. Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract electrons towards itself.

The participating atoms in a covalent bond have to be able to hold the shared electron in place & it is this attraction towards the centre of each participating atom that holds the electrons in place. Metals aren't electronegative, they don't attract electrons towards each other, they'd rather even push the electrons away from themselves (electropositive) to be stable. The closest concept of metals to shared electrons is in metallic bonding, where metals push and donate their valence electrons to an electron cloud which is free to move around the bulk of the metallic structure. But this is nowhere near the type of bonding that exist in covalent bonds.

What mass of oxalic acid dihydrate, H2C2O4•2H2O, is needed to make a 0.357 M solution of oxalic acid in a 250.0mL volumetric fla
GalinKa [24]

Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. The mass of oxalic acid dihydrate needed for the solution is calculated as follows:

Amount in moles: (0.357 mol H2C2O4•2H2O / L) (.250 L ) = 0.0893 mol H2C2O4•2H2O


Amount in mass : 0.0893 mol H2C2O4•2H2O (126.08 g / mol ) = 11.2589 g H2C2O4•2H2O


Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

What is the mole fraction of each component if 3.9 g of benzene (C6H6) is dissolved in 4.6 g of toluene (C7H8)
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Step 1 of 6

(a)

The mass of benzene is  , so calculate the moles of benzene as follows:



The mass of toluene is, so calculate the moles of toluene as follows:



Now, calculate the mole fraction as follows:





Therefore, the mole fraction of benzene and toluene is  and  respectively.

Step 2 of 6

(b)

The formula to calculate the partial pressure is as follows:



Here,  is the partial pressure of benzene,  is the vapour pressure of pure benzene and  is the mole fraction of benzene.

Vapour pressure of pure benzene at  is.

Substitute the values in the equation as follows:



Therefore, the partial pressure is  .

Step 3 of 6

(c)

Vapor pressure of the solution at 1 atm is  .

When the total pressure of the vapour pressure of the mixture is  at a temperature, then, the solution boils. It corresponds to the boiling point of the solution.

Calculate the total pressure of the solution at  as follows:



Since, the total pressure is less than the atmospheric pressure, the solution will not boil at  .

Calculate the total pressure of the solution at  as follows:



Since, the total pressure is greater than the atmospheric pressure, the solution will boil at  .

Therefore, the boiling point of the solution is  .

Step 4 of 6

(d)

Mole fraction of benzene at  is calculated as follows:



Mole fraction of toluene at  is calculated as follows:



Therefore, the mole fractions of benzene and toluene are  and  respectively.

Step 5 of 6

(e)

Vapor pressure of benzene at  is  .

Partial pressure of benzene is calculated as follows:



Vapor pressure of toluene at  is  .

Partial pressure of toluene is calculated as follows:



Step 6 of 6

Weight composition of the vapour that is in equilibrium with the solution is calculated as follows:



Weight composition of the vapour that is in equilibrium with the solution is calculated as follows:
