Round off the following number to 3 digits 34,560​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vikki [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

3.46x10⁴

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can see that the number 34,560 has five significant figures, it means that if we want to write it with three, we must take the 3, 4 and 5 only. Nevertheless, since the 6 after the five is greater than 5, we can round such five to 6, so we obtain:

346

However, the decimal places cannot get lost, therefore, we move the given thousand  to the three, so the number turns out:

3.46x10⁴

Best regards.

Liquid sodium is being considered as an engine coolant. How many grams of liquid sodium (minimum) are needed to absorb 1.30 MJ o
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

97 000 g Na

Explanation:

The absortion (or liberation) of energy in form of heat is expressed by:

q=m*Cp*ΔT

The information we have:

q=1.30MJ= 1.30*10^6 J

ΔT = 10.0°C = 10.0 K (ΔT is the same in °C than in K)

Cp=30.8 J/(K mol Na)

If you notice, the Cp in the question is in relation with mol of Na. Before using the q equation, we can find the Cp in relation to the grams of Na.

To do so, we use the molar mass of Na= 22.99g/mol

Cp= \frac{30.8J}{K*mol Na}*\frac{1 mol Na}{22.99 g Na}=1.34\frac{J}{K*g Na}

Now, we are able to solve for m:

m=\frac{1.30*10^6 J}{1.34\frac{J}{K*g Na} *10.0K}=\frac{1.30*10^6J}{13.4\frac{J}{g Na} }  = 9.70*10^4 g Na=97 Kg Na=97 000 g Na

Air contains nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and trace gases. Ifthe partial pressure of nitrogen is 592 mm Hg, oxygen is160 mm Hg, argo
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

760 mmHg

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Partial pressure of nitrogen (pN₂): 592 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of oxygen (pO₂): 160 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of argon (pAr): 7 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of the trace gas (pt): 1 mmHg

Step 2: Calculate the atmospheric pressure

Since air is a gaseous mixture, the atmospheric pressure is equal to the sum of the gases that compose it.

P = pN₂ + pO₂ + pAr + pt = 592 mmHg + 160 mmHg + 7 mmHg + 1 mmHg = 760 mmHg
