How do I identify significant figures in chemistry?

1 answer:

3 0

1) START counting for sig. figs. On the FIRST non-zero digit.

2) STOP counting for sig. figs. On the LAST non-zero digit.

3) Non-zero digits are ALWAYS significant.

4) Zeroes in between two non-zero digits are significant. All other zeroes are insignificant.

What is the standard potential, e∘celle∘cell, for this galvanic cell? use the given standard reduction potentials in your calcul

Olin [163]

The standard potential for the given galvanic cell is 0.477 V

<h3>What is electrode potential?</h3>

The electrode potential is the electromotive force of a galvanic cell built using a standard reference electrode and another electrode whose potential is to be found.

There are two types of electrode potential

Oxidation potential - The potential associated with oxidation reaction is known as oxidation potential

Reduction potential - The potential associated with reduction reaction is known as reduction potential

At the anode, oxidation occurs

$Sn(s)\rightarrow Sn^{2+}(aq)+2e^-$

At the cathode, reduction occurs

$Cu^{2+}(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow Cu(s)$

$E^o_{cell} =E^o_{cathode} -E^o_{anode}$

= 0.337 - (-0.140)

= 0.477 V

Thus, The standard potential for the given galvanic cell is 0.477 V

Given what you have learned about the hydrogen bonding shared between nucleic acids in dna, which pair is more stable under incr

Vinil7 [7]

Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G) are more steady under expanding heat since C and G have three hydrogen bonds while Adenine (An) and Thymine (T) have just two. The more hydrogen bonds there are, the more steady the nucleotides are. More bond dependability requires more warmth vitality to separate the securities, and since G≡C have more hydrogen securities than A=T, they are thusly more steady under expanding heat.

The first question is "how many moles of carbon monoxide (co) are required to react completely with 1.75 moles of iron (iii) oxi

Stells [14]

According to your equation, for every mole of iron oxide (Fe2O3), it takes 3 moles of carbon monoxide (CO). So for 1.75 moles, it takes 3 times as many moles of CO.

1.75 x 3 = 5.25 moles of CO.

I think your product is CO2. Dalton's Law sayeth that the coefficients tell us the ratios of moles. So if you hve 1.75 moles of Fe(III)oxide, 3*1.75 moles of CO are needed (in theory) to react completely. The answer is requested in moles, so you need go no further.
