Answer : The correct option is, (d) 2555 km

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.

As we are given that the sum of 2222 km and 333 km.

$2222km+333km$

$\Rightarrow 2555km$

In the given expression, 2222 has 4 significant figures and 333 has 3 significant figures. From this we conclude that least precise number present after the decimal point is 0.

Thus, the answer will be 2555 km.

33.23 grams of a thin sheet of iron is completely oxidized in 7 days. How would you express the rate of conversion of the silver

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

A. 0.0440 moles/day

Explanation:

First, let's figure out how many moles 33.23 grams of silver is. We do this by dividing the number of grams by the molar mass of silver, which is 107.87 g/mol:

33.23 g Ag ÷ 107.87 g/mol = 0.3081 mol Ag

Now, let's divide this by 7 to get the rate per day:

0.3081 mol Ag ÷ 7 days = 0.0440 mol/day

Thus, the answer is A.

Suppose 180 ml of 3.52x10^-4 M NaOH is mixed with 220 mL of 2.47x10^-4 M MgCl2.

velikii [3]

When in water, MgCl2 dissociates into magnesium ions and Cl- ions and NaOH into Na and OH ions. The equation is as follows:

MgCl2 = Mg2+ + 2Cl-
NaOH = Na+ + OH-

The initial concentrations are as follows:

[Mg2+] = .220(<span> 2.47x10^-4) / .220+.180 = 1.36x10^-4 M Mg2+
</span>[OH-] = .180 (3.52x10^-4) / .220+.180 = 1.58x10^-4 M OH-

Which best discribe a role of animal in the water cycle

77julia77 [94]

Animals contribute water mainly through breathing, perspiration and urination. ... When droplets of sweat evaporate from the surface of an animal's skin, they take a bit of the animal's body heat with them. They also turn into water vapor and enter the water cycle, just like water evaporating from plant leaves.

When the temperature of the gas changes from cold to hot, the amount of pressure is ___________.

Klio2033 [76]

The pressure would increase. When the temperature change form cold to hot, the gas will find ways to escape from containment. Thus, if it cannot escape that pressure will keep on increasing as the temperature rises.
