Answer:

67.4 % of C₉H₈O₄

Explanation:

To make titrations problems we know, that in the endpoint:

mmoles of acid = mmoles of base

mmoles = M . volume so:

mmoles of acid = 20.52 mL . 0.1121 M

mmoles of acid = mg of acid / PM (mg /mmoles)

Let's determine the PM of aspirin:

12.017 g/m . 9 + 1.00078 g/m . 8 + 15.9994 g/m . 4 = 180.1568 mg/mmol

mass (mg) = (20.52 mL . 0.1121 M) . 180.1568 mg/mmol

mass (mg) = 414.4 mg

We convert the mass to g → 414.4 mg . 1g / 1000mg = 0.4144 g

We determine the % → (0.4144 g / 0.615 g) . 100 = 67.4 %

Give the number of significant figures in this number: 7.8 x 10¹²
denis-greek [22]
The number is written in scientific notation.


The significant figures are the numbers known precisely plus 1 digit that is uncertain.


When the numbers are expressed in scientific notation all the digits before  10^n are significant.


So, 7 and 8 are significant figures and the answer is that the number of significant figures is 2.
