<span>when it comes to adding or subtracting numbers, his final answer should have the same number of decimal places as the least precise value.
For example if you add 2 numbers; 10.443 + 3.5 , 10.443 has 3 decimal places and 3.5 has only one decimal place.
Therefore 3.5 is the less precise value.
So when adding these 2 values the final answer should have only one decimal place.
after adding we get 13.943 but it can have upto one decimal place. then the second decimal place is less than 5 so the answer should be rounded off to 13.9.
the answer is the same number of decimal places as the least precise value</span>

Answer: the same number of decimal places as the least precise value.

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

The rule apply for the addition and subtraction is :

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

For example: 12.1 + 3.245 = 15.3  as the least precise number 12.1 has one decimal place.

Thus William should write the sum of these two numbers by using the same number of decimal places as the least precise value.

For a particular reaction, the change in enthalpy is â9kJmole and the activation energy is 13kJmole. The enthalpy change (ÎH) an
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The answer is Option a, that is "−9kJmole,5kJmole".

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

In the question, it uses the catalyst inside a process, which does not modify the process eigenvalues, however, it decreases the active energy with an enthalpy of -9kJmole, and also the power for activating decreases around 13 to 5 kJ mole, that's why the choice a is correct.

Equimolar solutions of the following were prepared in water separately. Which one of the solution will record the highest pH?
sammy [17]

Answer:

Ba(NO2)2

Explanation:

Anything that contains calcium comes from a strong acid. Nitrous oxide (NO2) is a weak acid, therefore the salt it makes is less acidic than the rest --> the highest pH :)

Unit of electro negativity
Luda [366]

Answer:

There are no units with electro negativity. Linus Pauling designed a scale of electro negativity that ranks elements with respect to each other. So, for example, fluorine is a 4.0 in comparison to 0.7 for francium.
