Answer:

[α] = -77.5° / \frac{\textup{dm-g}}{\textup{mL}}

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of optically pure substance in the solution = 10 g

Volume of water = 500 mL

Length of the polarimeter, l = 20 cm = 20 × 0.1 dm = 2 dm

measured rotation = - 3.10°

Now,

The specific rotation ( [α] ) is given as:

[α] = \frac{\alpha}{c\times l}

here,

α is the measured rotation = -3.10°

c is the concentration

or

c = \frac{\textup{Mass of optically pure substance in the solution}}{\textup{Volume of water}}

or

c =  \frac{10}{500}

or

c = 0.02 g/mL

on substituting the values, we get

[α] = \frac{-3.10^o}{0.02\times2}

or

[α] = -77.5° / \frac{\textup{dm-g}}{\textup{mL}}

Virty [35]
So to put them all in the same units we have 
<span>2500 mL </span>
<span>250 mL </span>
<span>25mL </span>
<span>2,500,000,000mL </span>

<span>So the third one is the smallest</span>

When road contractors are laying cement,they first place a series of steel rods in a specific patterns. the they pour the cement
Anna11 [10]
The steel rods will enable the concrete to form without any bumps and it will add shape to the cement and strength, so no odd massive lumps are formed.

That is what I think anyways :)

How many millimeters are there in 5.12 x 10^5
Anton [14]

Answer:

5.12x10¹¹ millimeters

Explanation:

Milli is a prefix used in science and engineering to decribe the number as the exponent x10⁻³. In the prefix kilo, the number is at the exponent x10³.

5.12x10⁵ kilometers are:

5.12x10⁵ kilometers * (1000m / 1km) = 5.12x10⁸ meters

5.12x10² meters * (1m / 1000millimeters) = 5.12x10¹¹ millimeters
