3 0

Answer: 4

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.

Rules for significant figures:

Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.

All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 654, 6.54 and 65.4 all have three significant figures.

All zero’s between integers are always significant. For example: 5005, 5.005 and 50.05 all have four significant figures.

All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.0078 has two significant figures.

All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 4.500, 45.00 and 450.0 all have four significant figures.

All zeroes used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant. For example : 8000 has one significant figure.

Thus 1.090 has four significant figures as all the digits are significant.

Any deviation in the image of an object when light passing from one medium to other is assciated to the phenomenon of refraction.

<h3>What is refraction ?</h3>

It is the deflection from a straight path undergone by a light ray while passing from one medium (such as air) into another (such as glass) in which its velocity is different.


Basically, the light refraction gives the pencil a slight magnifying effect, which makes the angle appear bigger than it actually is, causing the pencil to look crooked.

<h3 />
  • After Looking at the pencil from the side of a clear glass or resealable plastic bag filled three-fourths with water, we will see the light bends around the pencil, causing it to look bent in the water.

  • When the pencil tilt from side to side, It looks so dramatically broken on looking at it from different angles.
    We can magically “fix” the broken pencil by changing where the pencil is positioned in the glass.

Ionic formula for ethanoate ion
statuscvo [17]

Nomenclature and common formula. When part of a salt, the formula of the acetate ion is written as CH3CO2−, C2H3O2−, or CH3COO−. Chemists abbreviate acetate as OAc− or, less commonly, AcO−. Thus, HOAc is the abbreviation for acetic acid, NaOAc for sodium acetate, and EtOAc for ethyl acetate.

How many equivalents are in a solution that contains 0.25 moles Mg2+ and 0.50 moles Cl–?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mg²⁺ is divalent , hence

Molecular weight / 2 = equivalent weight .

.25 moles = 2 x .25 equivalents = .5 equivalents .

Cl⁻ is monovalent so

molecular weight = equivalent weight

.50 mole = .50 equivalent

Total equivalent = .50 of Mg²⁺ + .50 of Cl⁻

= 1 equivalent .
