Round off each number to the indicated number significant figures (sf):
qaws [65]

Answer :

(a) The given number in 2 significant figures will be, 3.6\times 10^3

(b) The given number in 4 significant figures will be, 3.583\times 10^1

(c) The given number in 3 significant figures will be, 2.24\times 10^1

Explanation :

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

(a) The given number 00003554 converted into 2 significant figures.

In 00003554, there are 4 significant figures. Now we have to convert it into 2 significant figures.

The given number in 2 significant figures will be, 3.6\times 10^3

(b) The given number 35.8348 converted into 4 significant figures.

In 35.8348, there are 6 significant figures. Now we have to convert it into 4 significant figures.

The given number in 4 significant figures will be, 3.583\times 10^1

(c) The given number 22.4555 converted into 3 significant figures.

In 22.4555, there are 6 significant figures. Now we have to convert it into 3 significant figures.

The given number in 3 significant figures will be, 2.24\times 10^1

Where is almost all the mass of an atom​
VashaNatasha [74]
The nucleus!! This is made up of protons and neutrons that each weigh about 1 amu.

Electrons are not found in the nucleus and weigh almost nothing so chemistry in school doesn’t bother with them :)

Purification of copper can be achieved by electrorefining copper from an impure copper anode onto a pure copper cathode in an el
givi [52]

Answer: The amount of time needed to plate 14.0 kg of copper onto the cathode is 295 hours

Explanation:

We are given:

Moles of electron = 1 mole

According to mole concept:

1 mole of an atom contains 6.022\times 10^{23} number of particles.

We know that:

Charge on 1 electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}C

Charge on 1 mole of electrons = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=96500C

Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu

2\times 96500=193000C is passed to deposit = 1 mole of copper

63.5 g of copper is deposited by = 193000 C

14\times 1000g=14000g of copper is deposited by =\frac{193000}{63.5}\times 14000=42551181 C

To calculate the time required, we use the equation:

I=\frac{q}{t}

where,

I = current passed = 40.0 A

q = total charge = 42551181 C

t = time required = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

40.0=\frac{42551181 C}{t}\\\\t=1063779sec

Converting this into hours, we use the conversion factor:

1 hr = 3600 seconds

So, 1063779s\times \frac{1hr}{3600s}=295hr

Hence, the amount of time needed to plate 14.0 kg of copper onto the cathode is 295 hours
