948 or 9.48 x 10^2
There are two sets of rules for significant figures
• One set for addition and subtraction
• Another set for multiplication and division
You used the set for multiplication and division.
This problem involves addition and subtraction, and the rule is
The number of places after the decimal point in the answer must be <em>no greater than the number of decimal places in every term</em> in the sum.
Thus, we have
78.9
+890.43
-21.
= 948.33
The "21" term has the fewest digits after the decimal point (none), so the answer must have no digits after the decimal point.
To the correct answer is 948 = 9.48 x 10^2. It has three significant figures.
Glucose and Galactose both have the same molecular formula, C6H12O6, but in the body, galactose must be first converted to glucose to make energy. The difference<span> is their </span>structures
Answer:
Ground state
the state with the smallest amount of energy.
Atomic number of C is 6. Hence, there are 6 electrons in carbon.
The electronic configuration of carbon is 1s2, 2s2, 2p2
Here, there are 2 unpaired electron. However, C2+ ions have 2 electrons less as compared to C.
Hence, electronic configuration of C 2+ ion is 1s2, 2s2. All the electrons are paired in this system. So there are no unpaired electrons in C 2+ ion.
True because it doesn’t count as a full number
