Answer:

4.427 × 10⁵

Explanation:

In mathematics, rounding up a number is a way to get a more simpler figure but not too distant from the original number. Rounding up a whole number like this (442722) to significant figures means having only four non-zero digits in the figure i.e. 442722 ~ 442700.

This means that 442722 has been rounded up to 4s.f. Hence, to use scientific notations to represent our answer, we count the number of decimal places from right to left i.e.

442700 = 5 decimal places if the point is between 4 and 4 i.e. 4.427

Therefore, the figure 442700 can be written as 4.427 × 10⁵ using scientific notation.

Based on their electronegativities, you would expect ____ elements to pull on electrons more strongly than ______ elements.
sveta [45]

Answer:

I interpret the answers as being nonmetallic and metallic.

Explanation:

Nonmetals are in groups 14 - 18. Electronegativity is referred to as the want to attract electrons to an atom. Noble gases (group 18) have eight valence electrons in their outer subshells and are therefore atomically stable. Elements with only 7 valence electrons are very electronegative because they desire to obtain an electron to reach stability more than a group 2 element would (they are more likely to drop electrons by giving away in order to reach atomic stability of a group 18 element). This coincides with electron configuration, which is a very lengthy topic to cover. You can conduct more research if you would need it.

A gas occupies 12.3 liters at a pressure of 40.0 mm Hg. What is the volume when the pressure is increased to 60.0 mm Hg?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Final volume = V₂ =  8.2L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 12.3 L

Initial pressure = 40.0 mmHg

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 60.0 mmHg

Solution:

The given problem will be solved through the Boyle's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

40.0 mmHg × 12.3 L = 60.0 mmHg × V₂

V₂ = 40.0 mmHg × 12.3 L / 60.0 mmHg

V₂ =  492 mmHg. L /  60.0 mmHg

V₂ =  8.2L

If 29.50 ml of 0.175m nitric acid neutralizes 50.0 ml of ammonium hydroxide, what is the molarity of the base?
frozen [14]
The molarity of the  base ( ammonium hydroxide)   is calculated  as follows

find  the moles  of  Nitric  acid  =molarity  x  volume

=29.5  x  0.175 =5.163  moles  of nitric  acid

write the   equation  for  reaction

HNO3+ NH4OH  =NH4NO3  +H2O

by  use  of  mole  ratio  between  HNO3 to NH4NO3   which  is 1:1  the  moles  of  NH4OH is  also  5.163 moles

molarity =moles/volume

=  5.163 /50=0.103 M  is  the  molarity  of the  base
