Answer: D. 4

Explanation:

For numbers with decimal point, we should start counting from the first number that non-zero from the left.

0.0001372

We start counting from 1, since it is the first non-zero number

1, 3, 7, 2

There are in total 4 significant figures

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any question or need further explanation

Answer:

The given compound cannot be cocaine.

Explanation:

The chemist can comment on the nature of compound being cocaine or not from the depression in freezing point.

Depression in freezing point of is related to molality as:

Depression in freezing point = Kf X molality

Where

Kf = cryoscopic constant = 4.90°C/m

depression in freezing point = normal freezing point - freezing point of solution

depression in freezing point = 5.5-3.9 = 1.6°C

1.6°C = 4.90 X molality

molality=\frac{1.6}{4.90} = 0.327 m

we know that:

molality=\frac{moles}{mass of solvent(kg)}=\frac{moles}{0.008kg}

therefore

moles = 0.327X0.008 = 0.00261 mol

moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}

molarmass=\frac{mass}{moles}=\frac{0.50}{0.00261}= 191.57g/mol

The molar mass of cocaine is 303.353

So the given compound cannot be cocaine.

Teniendo en cuenta los siguientes fenómenos: ebullición del agua- movimiento de un cuerpo- disolución de sal en agua- combustión
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Las siguientes son reacciones químicas;

combustión de leña

oxidación del hierro

descomposición del agua en hidrógeno y oxígeno

Explanation:

Una reacción química da como resultado la formación de una (s) sustancia (s) nueva (s), mientras que un cambio físico no conduce a la formación de una sustancia nueva.

Las siguientes son reacciones químicas;

combustión de leña: la combustión de madera implica la oxidación del carbono según la reacción; C (s) + O2 (g) -------> CO2 (g)

oxidación del hierro: La oxidación del hierro conduce a la formación de óxidos de hierro. Como; 2Fe (s) + O2 (g) ----> 2FeO (s)

descomposición del agua en hidrógeno y oxígeno: esta es una reacción química en la que el agua se descompone de la siguiente manera; 2H2O (l) -----> 2H2 (g) + O2 (g)

Todos estos procesos enumerados anteriormente conducen a la formación de nuevas sustancias, por lo tanto, son reacciones químicas.
