12, if the decimal is over five, round up. If it's not, round down. Not sure what you mean by significant figures.

44.2124+0.81+7.335 significant digits

zhenek [66]

Explanation:

We need to understand and apply the rules of significant figures when carrying out addition operations to solve this problem:

Rules of significant figures:

Non-zero digits are always significant in a given number
Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion is significant.
Any leading zero in a decimal is significant.

In addition, the answer of the sum is given to the least number of significant digits of the given numbers:

44.2124

+ 0.81

+ 7.335

sum 52.3574

Now the least number of significant figure is 2 as seen in 0.81

we round the sum up to 52

When 40g of ammonium nitrate explode 14g of nitrogen and 8g of oxygen form. How many grams of water form?

blagie [28]

answer and Explanation:

the same amount would have to stay in grams, so if 14 grams of nitrogen is formed, then 8 grams of oxygen, add those two together and you get 22. and that's 22 of the 40 grams used, so 40 su

When the following aqueous solutions are mixed together, a precipitate forms. Balance the net ionic equation in standard form fo

rewona [7]

Answer:

For (a): The balanced net ionic equation is $2Ag^{+}(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Ag_2S(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 4

For (b): The balanced net ionic equation is $Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 4

For (c): The balanced net ionic equation is $Ca^{2+}(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaCO_3(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is

For (d): The balanced net ionic equation is $Ba^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Ba(OH)_2(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 4

For (e): The balanced net ionic equation is $Ag^{+}(aq)+Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow AgCl(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 3

Explanation:

Net ionic equation is defined as the equations in which spectator ions are not included.

Spectator ions are the ones that are present equally on the reactant and product sides. They do not participate in the reaction.

For (a): Sodium sulfide and silver nitrate

The balanced molecular equation is:

$Na_2S(aq)+2AgNO_3(aq)\rightarrow 2NaNO_3(aq)+Ag_2S(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)+2Ag^+(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+Ag_2S(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$2Ag^{+}(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Ag_2S(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [2 + 1 + 1] = 4

For (b): Lead(II) nitrate and sodium chloride

The balanced molecular equation is:

$2NaCl(aq)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2NaNO_3(aq)+PbCl_2(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)+Pb^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+PbCl_2(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [2 + 1 + 1] = 4

For (c): Calcium nitrate and potassium carbonate

The balanced molecular equation is:

$K_2CO_3(aq)+Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+CaCO_3(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2K^{+}(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq)+Ca^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2K^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+CaCO_3(s)$

As potassium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$Ca^{2+}(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaCO_3(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [1 + 1 + 1] = 3

For (d): Barium nitrate and sodium hydroxide

The balanced molecular equation is:

$2NaOH(aq)+Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2NaNO_3(aq)+Ba(OH)_2(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)+Ba^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+Ba(OH)_2(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions

The net ionic equation follows:

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Ba(OH)_2(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [2 + 1 + 1] = 4

For (e): Silver nitrate and sodium chloride

The balanced molecular equation is:

$NaCl(aq)+AgNO_3(aq)\rightarrow NaNO_3(aq)+AgCl(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$Na^{+}(aq)+Cl^{-}(aq)+Ag^{+}(aq)+NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq)+NO_3^-(aq)+AgCl(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$Ag^{+}(aq)+Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow AgCl(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [1 + 1 + 1] = 3
