The correct answer C) 1 x 10^8

The scientific notation is a method of writing the large digits in the form of exponents. The number of zero(s) are counted and then it is written as the power of the 10.

Here, we have to write 100,000,000 in scientific notation , we will have to move the decimal point to the left 8 places until it is after only one digit is left.

<h3>Answer;</h3>

C) 1 x 10^8

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

To in scientific notation we need to move the decimal point to the left until the first number is at least one but less than ten. The number of places that you have to move it becomes the exponent or the power of 10.
Therefore, to write 100,000,000, in scientific notation, we move the decimal point to the left 8 places until it is after the first digit. 
The number of places that you move it becomes the exponent (8). 
The exponent is positive because it is a big number. Zeroes at the end are not part of the answer because they were not significant.

Robert places six eggs in a pot of boiling water (100°C) and six eggs in a pot with water at 80°C. He keeps the eggs in the wate

Bad White [126]

The independent variable in this experiment is the time the experiment took. This is because both the temperature and the number of cooked eggs can be affected during the process of the experiment.

Temperature of the water can be affected by the temperature of the eggs when they are first lowered into the water. This would decrease the temperature of the water, making it a depended variable.

The number of eggs cooked can be affected by the temperature. This would mean that the number of cooked eggs could differ depending on the temperature, meaning that it is a dependent variable.

Describe three ways that drugs affect synapses that use the neurotransmitter dopamine

Keith_Richards [23]

The three ways in which drugs affect the synapses include; they affect the number of neurotransmitters available, the rate of release of neurotransmitters, and binding affinity of neurotransmitter receptors to the neurotransmitters. For example; Drugs can affect the production of neurotransmitters, movement of neurotransmitters into vesicles, or movement of vesicles to a synapse.

In an ionic compound, the attraction between actions and _________ hold the compound together

Nady [450]

Answer:
The correct option in blank is anion.

Explanation:
Ionic compound is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to another atom. When an electropositve atom lose an electron it form cation, whereas as anion is formed when an atom gain an electron. These actions and anions then attract each other and form an ionic compound.
I hope it will help you.

Example:
The formation of NaCl is best example of ionic compound. Na has one electron in its outer most shell which can easily be removed to form Na+, while Cl has seven electron in its outer most shell so it can easily gain an electron lost by Na to form Cl-. Then these ions attract each other and form NaCl as shown in the figure.
