How many significant figures should the following answer have? (23.34 cm)(90076 cm)(2.1223 cm) = cm
2 answers:
Answer : The number of significant figures are, four (4).
Explanation :
The rule apply for the multiplication and division is :
The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.
As we are given :
In this problem, the least number of significant figures is 4.
So, the correct answer is,
Hence, the number of significant figures are, four (4).

Answer:
The heat needed to boil 1 gallon of water is 81,490.62 Joules.
Explanation:
Where:
Q = heat absorbed or heat lost
c = specific heat of substance
m = Mass of the substance
ΔT = change in temperature of the substance
We have :
Volume of water = V = 1 gal = 4546.09 mL
Density of water , d= 1 g/mL
mass of water = m = d × V = 1g/mL × 4546.09 mL = 4546.09 g
Specific heat of water = c = 1 Cal/g°C
ΔT = 100°C - 25°C = 75 °C
9 (boiling pint of water is 100°C)
Heat absorbed by the water to make it boil:
1 calorie = 4.184 J
The heat needed to boil 1 gallon of water is 81,490.62 Joules.
Answer: the boiling point elevation constant is
Explanation:
Elevation in boiling point is given by:
= Elevation in boling point
i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte)
=boiling point constant = ?
m= molality
Weight of solvent (diethylether)= 330 g = 0.33 kg
Molar mass of solute (benzophenone)= 182 g/mol
Mass of solute (benzophenone) = 38.2 g
Thus the boiling point elevation constant is
