<span>Three significant figures would be 87.1 m In scientific notation it would be 8.71 x 10^1 m Significant figures tells you how many total digits to hold in the number, so in this case it is three, so we keep three total digits, but we round up the tenths position because in the hundredths is 7. In order to write in scientific notation, the mantissa (or significand) must be between 1 and 10. The magnitude is then denoted by a power, the power is calculated by how many times the decimal is "moved" if it is to the left to get the mantissa, then it is a positive number, if it is moved to the right, then it is a number smaller than 1.</span>

It is thought that Vitamin C might be an effective preventative
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

IF the fruit juice contains a high level of vitamin C, THEN the preventative effectiveness against common cold increases.

Explanation:

The hypothesis is a testable explanation of a scientific investigation. It aims at predicting the outcome of the experiment. One feature of the hypothesis is that it must be testable. The hypothesis is usually written in an "IF, THEN" format.

This question is regarding an experiment to test the amount of vitamin C in fruit juice. The vitamin C is thought to be an effective preventative against common cold. Hence, the hypothesis connects the effect on common cold (dependent variable) with the amount of vitamin C (independent variable). The hypothesis can be written as:

IF the fruit juice contains a high level of vitamin C, THEN the preventative effectiveness against common cold increases.

Why does a catalyst work for a long time before it needs replacing?
DedPeter [7]
Because the catalyst is not really part of the reaction. it is something that speed up a reaction by lowering the energy need for the reaction to take place. however, in the end the catalyst is brought back to its initial state. that's why it is long lasting
