<h3>What is Scientific Notation ?</h3>

Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers.

A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10.

<h3>Steps to Calculate Scientific Notation ;</h3>

  • Determine the exponent, n , on the factor 10 .
  • Move the decimal n places, adding zeros if needed.
  • If the exponent is positive, move the decimal point n places to the right.
  • If the exponent is negative, move the decimal point |n places to the left.
  • Check.

How do i describe how a constant volume calorimeter can be used to measure the heat transferred from a burning piece of coal to
zepelin [54]
 calorimeter<span> is a device used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process. For example, when an exothermic reaction occurs in solution in a calorimeter, the heat produced by the reaction is absorbed by the solution, which increases its temperature. When an endothermic reaction occurs, the heat required is absorbed from the thermal energy of the solution, which decreases its temperature (</span>[link]<span>). The temperature change, along with the specific heat and mass of the solution, can then be used to calculate the amount of heat involved in either case.</span>
