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

A gas has a volume of 490. mL at a temperature of -35.0 degrees C. What volume would the gas occupy at 42.0 degrees Celsius? Ple

miskamm [114]

Answer:

648.5 mL

Explanation:

Here we will assume that the pressure of the gas is constant, since it is not given or specified.

Therefore, we can use Charle's law, which states that:

"For an ideal gas kept at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically:

$\frac{V}{T}=const.$

where

V is the volume of the gas

T is its absolute temperature

The equation can be rewritten as

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

where in this problem we have:

$V_1=490 mL$ is the initial volume of the gas

$T_1=-35.0^{\circ} + 273 = 238 K$ is the initial temperature

$T_2=42.0^{\circ}+273=315 K$ is the final temperature

Solving for V2, we find the final volume of the gas:

$V_2=\frac{V_1 T_2}{T_1}=\frac{(490)(315)}{238}=648.5 mL$
