Five. The measurement 50,600 mg has five significant digits.

I presume that you are using the comma as a decimal separator.

The <em>rules for significant figures</em> are
1. Nonzero digits are always significant.
2. Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
3. Final or trailing zeros are significant only if they are to the right of a decimal point.

• According to Rule 1, the <em>5 and 6</em> are significant.
• According to Rule 2, the <em>0 between the 5 and 6</em> is significant
• According to Rule 3, the <em>final two zeros</em> are significant.

Thus, there are five significant digits in the measurement 50,600 mg.

Note: If the comma is a thousands separator, the number has only three significant digits.

Answer:

5.

Explanation:

Significant figures may be defined as the numbers of the digit that can carry to contribute the meaning of the exact measurement resolution. Significant figures follows some specific scientific rules.

All non zero digits are significant figures. The zeros that are present between the non zero digits are significant figures. The zeros that are present after the significant figures are considered as significant. Here, 5 significant figures are 5,0,6,0 and 0. Hence, the total significant figures are 5.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

How many atoms in 5.01 mole of lead?
leva [86]

Answer:

30.17 × 10²³ atoms

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of lead = 5.01 mol

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

In given question:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

5.01 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms / 1 mol

30.17 × 10²³ atoms
