Five. The measurement 50,600 mg has five significant digits.
I presume that you are using the comma as a decimal separator.
The <em>rules for significant figures</em> are
1. Nonzero digits are always significant.
2. Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
3. Final or trailing zeros are significant only if they are to the right of a decimal point.
• According to Rule 1, the <em>5 and 6</em> are significant.
• According to Rule 2, the <em>0 between the 5 and 6</em> is significant
• According to Rule 3, the <em>final two zeros</em> are significant.
Thus, there are five significant digits in the measurement 50,600 mg.
Note: If the comma is a thousands separator, the number has only three significant digits.
The empirical formula for a compound that contains 48.6%C, 8.2% H, and 43.2% S by mass is 
.
<h3>What is the empirical formula?</h3>
An empirical formula tells us the relative ratios of different atoms in a compound.
We need to calculate the number of moles
Number of a mole of carbon =
48.6 g X (
) =4.05 mole
Number of a mole of hydrogen =
8.2g X (
) =8.14 mole
Number of moles of sulphur =
43.2g X (
) = 1.35 mole
Dividing each mole using the smallest number that is divided by 1.35 moles.
Carbon= 
=3
Oxygen= 
=6
Sulfur= 
=1

Answer:
The answer to your question is B. metallic
Explanation:
Covalent bonding is a bond between two nonmetals and the difference in electronegativity is between 0 and 1.7. Sodium could not have this kind of bond because is a metal.
Ionic bonding is a bond between a metal and a nonmetal and the difference of electronegativity is higher than 1.7. Sodium can have this kind of bond it is necessary one nonmetal.
Metallic, sodium has a metallic bond because this bond is characteristic of metals.
