What is the solution to the problem expressed to the correct number of significant figures?

Chemistry
1 answer:
anyanavicka [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

8700

Explanation:

First, do the operations i<em>nside parentheses</em>.

102 900/12 = 8600     2 sfs because of 12

170/1.27 = 130              2 sfs because of trailing 0 in 170

===============

Now, do the addition.

 8600

<u>  + </u><u>13</u><u>0 </u>

8700

The answer has two significant figures because when adding, you must round your answer to the same "place" as the measurement with its last significant figure furthest to the left.  

The last significant figure in 8600 (the 6, in the hundreds place) is further to the left than the last significant figure in 130 (the 3, in the tens place).

We round off to the nearest hundred and get the answer, 8700.

Answer:

the spotlight effect.

Explanation:

The spotlight effect is a tendency to think that people get noticed more often than they really do. It is an overestimation of the situation regarding the concern of getting observed. It concerns the self-confidence of an individual. For example, an individual feels that everybody in a party would notice him for a bad pair of shoes while in reality, it does not concern them.

As per the question, the overestimation of people's reaction is known as the spotlight effect.

In Part B the given conditions were 1.00 mol of argon in a 0.500-L container at 18.0°C. You identified that the ideal pressure (

Answer:

4,38%

small molecular volumes

Decrease

Explanation:

The percent difference between the ideal and real gas is:

(47,8atm - 45,7 atm) / 47,8 atm × 100 = 4,39% ≈ <em>4,38%</em>

This difference is considered significant, and is best explained because argon atoms have relatively <em>small molecular volumes. </em>That produce an increasing in intermolecular forces deviating the system of ideal gas behavior.

Therefore, an increasing in volume will produce an ideal gas behavior. Thus:

If the volume of the container were increased to 2.00 L, you would expect the percent difference between the ideal and real gas to <em>decrease</em>

Two examples of energy transformations are shown.
erastova [34]

The energy transformations are similar because they result into radiant energy.

As for the lamp, Electrical energy is transformed into light when the filament

or mercury vapor glows on passage of current.

The fire- chemical energy is turned to light energy during the combustion of carbon.  Both products comprise of ultraviolet radiation which is a form of radiant energy.
