Is 6.0 × 10 to the negative 4th power is a significant figure?​
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

First remember that a significant figure are basically values that contribute to the precision of a value. In any scientific notation the values are significant figures because these values stay the same. In this case we have two significant figures which is 6 and 0, you can further prove that they are significant figures by converting the notation into standard form.

6.0\times10^{-4}

Negative so move the decimal point to the left:

=0.00060

6 and 0 are the significant figures in this standard notation because it's precise to it's actual value which is 6.0.

To sum up, the values you have on the left side of a notation are significant figures since they will not change no matter if it's standard or scientific notation meaning it's precise.

Hope this helps.

Chrysanthenone is an unsaturated ketone. If Chrysanthenone has M+ = 150 and contains 2 double bond(s) and 2 ring(s); what is its
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

the Molecular formula will be; C10H14O

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Chrysanthenone is an unsaturated ketone,

it has M+ = 150 and contains 2 double bond(s) and 2 ring(s).

molecular formula = ?

we know that ketone contain 1 oxygen and mass of oxygen is 16

so mass of the C and H remaining will be;

⇒ 150 - 16 = 134

Now we determine the number of C atoms;

⇒ 134 / 13 = 10

hydrocarbon with 10 hydrogen atom have CnH2n+2 means

⇒ ( 10 × 2 ) +2 = 22 hydrogens

But then we have 3 unsaturation meaning 6 hydrogens less and also we have ring meaning 2 more hydrogens

⇒ 22 - 6 - 2 = 14

Hence the Molecular formula will be; C10H14O
