Question

9.50 x 10-1 kg converted to the basic unit (with no prefix) and expressed in standard exponential notation to the proper number of significant digits is:

Answer 1

Answer:

$9.50\times 10^{-1}\ kg=950\ g$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression $9.50\times 10^{-1}\ kg$

To find : Write expression converted to the basic unit (with no prefix) and expressed in standard exponential notation to the proper number of significant digits ?

Solution :

The basic unit of kg is to convert into gram.

We know, 1 kg=1000 g

So, $9.50\times 10^{-1}\ kg=9.50\times 10^{-1}\times 1000\ g$

$9.50\times 10^{-1}\ kg=9.50\times 10^{2}\ g$

Now, Convert standard exponential notation to the proper number of significant digits,

$9.50\times 10^{-1}\ kg=\frac{950}{100}\times 100\ g$

$9.50\times 10^{-1}\ kg=950\ g$

Therefore, $9.50\times 10^{-1}\ kg=950\ g$
