Taking into account the scientific notation, the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.
<h3>Scientific notation</h3>
First, remember that scientific notation is a quick way to represent a number using powers of base ten.
The numbers are written as a product:
a×10ⁿ
where:
- a is a real number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10, to which a decimal point is added after the first digit if it is a non-integer number.
- n is an integer, which is called an exponent or an order of magnitude. Represents the number of times the comma is shifted. It is always an integer, positive if it is shifted to the left, negative if it is shifted to the right.

You want to subtract two numbers in scientific notation. It should be noted that when the numbers to be added do not have the same base 10 exponent, the base 10 power with the highest exponent must be found. In this case, the highest exponent is 5.
Then all the values are expressed as a function of the base 10 exponent with the highest exponent. In this case: 5.00×10⁴=0.500×10⁵
Taking the quantities to the same exponent, all you have to do is subtract what was previously called the number "a". In this case:
7.00×10⁵ - 0.500×10⁵= (7.00- 0.500)×10⁵= 6.5×10⁵
Finally, the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.

Answer:
0.50 M
Explanation:
Given data
- Mass of sodium sulfate (solute): 7.1 g
- Volume of solution: 100 mL
Step 1: Calculate the moles of the solute
The molar mass of sodium sulfate is 142.04 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 7.1 grams of sodium sulfate are:
Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to liters
We will use the relation 1 L = 1000 mL.
Step 3: Calculate the molarity of the solution
Answer: B or C
Explanation: The question does not include the variable or steps Brian is using so either one could be correct. It has to be the one that he is controlling though. This is because a control group is used to rule out any alternate explanations. Therefore the answer should be the one that he is trying to test out.
Answer: 1.284M NH3
Explanation: (12.23 grams)/(17.0 gramms/mole) = 0.7191 moles
Dissolved in 560.0 ml (=0.5600L)
(0.7191 moles)/(0.560L) = 1.284M (4 sig figs)
