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.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
He is right that the energy of vaporization of 47 g of water s 106222 j.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Enthalpy of vaporization or heat of vaporization is the amount of energy which is used to transform one mole of liquid into gas.
In case of water it is 40.65 KJ/mol. And 18 g of water is equal to one mole.
It means for vaporizing 18 g, 40.65 kJ energy is needed.
So for energy 47 g of water = 47/18 * 40.65 = 106.1 KJ
Hence the student is right about the energy of vaporization of 47 g of water.
