Answer:

There are 3 sig figs

Explanation:

Sig figs are the amount of figures counting from the left side of the number until you reach the first zero. Starting from the left, I counted one, three, and six. That's 3 numbers, and therefore, that's how we got our answer. The only exception is when there is a decimal. Then all the numbers before the decimal, despite whether or not they're zeros, are sig figs.

Answer:

3 significant figures

Explanation:

The significant figure is such that every number after it is zero. As such, when a number is given to be rounded to a x significant numbers, the count starts from the left with the first number on the left being the first significant number and others following through i.e the next being the second significant number.

However, to round off to x significant number, we consider the number in the x+1 position. If the number is up to 5, it will be rounded ( as well as every other numbers to the right) to zero but 1 will be added to the number in the x position.

Given the theory, 136,000 ml has 3 significant figures.

The Chemistry Cafe was out of bread. The cook went next door to the bakery and bought a loaf of bread which has 33 slices. Then,

maria [59]

In the question, we are told that there are;

A loaf containing 33 slices
A loaf containing 33 slices A package of cheese containing 15 slices

We also know that he is making a sandwich that has 2 pieces of both cheese and bread.

Hence;

Total number of bread and cheese = 33 + 15.

Each loaf should have two pieces of each bread and the cheeses make a total of four pieces.

Therefore he can make = 33 + 15/4 = 12 sandwiches.

18. What is the percent by mass sugar of a solution made by dissolving 12.45 grams of sugar in 100 grams of water?

Fantom [35]

The percent by mass sugar of a solution : 11.07%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass of sugar = 12.45 g

mass of water = 100 g

Required

The percent by mass

Solution

Mass of solution :

$\tt mass~sugar+mass~water=12.45+100=112.45~g$

Percent mass of sugar :

$\tt \%mass=\dfrac{mass~sugar}{mass~solution}\times 100\%\\\\\%mass=\dfrac{12.45}{112.45}\times 100\%=11.07\%$

Liquid A is known to have a lower surface tension and lower viscosity than Liquid B. Use these facts to predict the result of be

Korvikt [17]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Surface tension is defined as the attractive forces experienced by the surface molecules of a liquid by the molecules present beneath the surface layer of the liquid.

And, viscosity is defined as the ability of a liquid to resist its flow. When a substance has high viscosity then it is known as a viscous substance.

Since, it is given that viscosity of liquid B is more than liquid A. Therefore, liquid B has more resistive force on its surface as compared to liquid A. As a result, time taken by liquid B is more than time taken by liquid A.

Also, Surface tension = $\frac{Force}{Length}$

Surface tension of liquid B is more than liquid A. Therefore, $F_{B} > F_{A}$ .

Thus, we can conclude that tA will be less than tB.
