Greetings!
Significant Digits are:
-Non Zero Numbers
-Zeros in between Non Zero Numbers
-Trailing zeros to the right of the decimal point
So when rounding to 4 significant figures, we get:
1023
Hope this helps.

Answer: Ammonium, when heated with aqueous base, will give off NH3 (ammonia) gas, (and depending, water vapor). This will leave the Cr2O3(s). From then on,
it is just adding or subtraction of gases or water vapor. You probably heard “Loss of electrons is Oxidation”, “Gain of Electrons is reduction”. That should help.
Explanation: This isn’t an explanation but an interesting point; Acid-Base and RedOx reactions are useful to the most complex of any Chemistry. Get this down, and Organic Chemistry will be much easier.
1. Weird things like the one described above do not happen on a ramdom basis becuause molecules usually move within any enclosure in a ramdom manner. Thus, it is not possible for some types of particles to aggregate in one point while other types of molecule aggreagate in another point. Based on the kinetic energy that is available for each particle, each particle will move random
through the available space, colliding with one another and with the wall of container.
2. It will be a difficult thing to live in a Maxwell' demon world because, things will happen unpredictably and one will never know what to expect next because anything can happen at anytime. For instance, if one is drinking a glass of water, some of the particles of the water may just decide to aggregate to one part of the cup and start boiling. So, for someone who is taking a glass of water, the water may start boiling right inside his mouth when he is drinking, that will be a bad experience. When one is driving a car, the petrol particles may just decide to freeze up when one is busy speeding on the highway; that can cause a very serious accident. Thus, a world where the Maxwell law operates will be a chaotic world.
