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 :

$(23.34cm)\times (90076cm)\times (2.1223cm)$

$\Rightarrow 4462000cm^3$

In this problem, the least number of significant figures is 4.

So, the correct answer is, $4.462\times 10^{6}cm^3$

Hence, the number of significant figures are, four (4).

4 - due to being a multiplication problem the answer goes to the least amount of Sig Figs given in a previous number.

Tetrachloromethane, CCl4 is produced from the substitution reaction between methane and chlorine gas. If the rate of formation o

Korolek [52]

The rate of disappearance of chlorine gas : 0.2 mol/dm³

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time.

For reaction :

$\tt aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

The rate reaction :

$\tt -\dfrac{1}{a}\dfrac{d[-A]}{dt}= -\dfrac{1}{b}\dfrac{d[-B]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{c}\dfrac{d[C]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{d}\dfrac{d[D]}{dt}$

Reaction for formation CCl₄ :

CH₄+4Cl₂⇒CCl₄+4HCl

From equation, rate of reaction = rate of formation CCl₄ = 0.05 mol/dm³

Rate of formation of CCl₄ = reaction rate x coefficient of CCCl₄

0.05 mol/dm³ = reaction rate x 1⇒reaction rate = 0.05 mol/dm³

The rate of disappearance of chlorine gas (Cl₂) :

Rate of disappearance of Cl₂ = reaction rate x coefficient of Cl₂

Rate of disappearance of Cl₂ = 0.05 x 4 = 0.2 mol/dm³

A solution is made by mixing 33.0 ml of ethanol, C2H6O and 67.0 ml of water. Assuming ideal behavior, what is the vapor pressure

ivann1987 [24]

Grams ethanol = 33 ml times .789 gms/ml = 26.037 gms

Moles ethanol = 26.037 gms / 46 gms/mole = .57 moles 

Moles water = 67 ml or 67 grams/18 gms/mole = 3.22 moles 

total moles = .57 + 3.72 = 4.29 moles 

Mole fraction ethanol = .57 moles ethanol / 4.29 moles total = 0.13

Moles fraction water = 3.72 moles water / 4.29 moles total = 0.87

Partial pressure of ethanol = mole fraction ethanol (.13) _ times VP ethanol 43.9 torr) = 5.707 torr 

partial pressure water = mole fraction water .87) times VP water (l7.5 torr) = 15.23 torr 

Total vapor pressure over solution = 5.71 torr + 15.23 torr = 20.94 torr

All energy can generally be considered to be either kinetic energy or potential energy. Some specific forms of energy, such as electrical, magnetic, and gravitational energy, can operate in the space around objects and affect other objects that come near. So, the correct answer is B, I believe. :)
