Why do we use Scientific Notation?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Darina [25.2K]3 years ago

Answer:

Scientific Notation was developed in order to easily represent numbers that are either very large or very small.  As you can see, it could get tedious writing out those numbers repeatedly. So, a system was developed to help represent these numbers in a way that was easy to read and understand: Scientific Notation.

Answer:

Working with very large or small quantities usually ends up being quite complicated. Scientific notation is a way to write numbers in an abbreviated way, making it easier to work with these numbers.

Len [333]

Answer;

(4) Sodium can combine with chlorine to produce a salt.

Explanation;

Sodium is an alkali metal (group 1 ) in the periodic table. It is a soft metal, reactive and with a low melting point. It has an atomic weight of 23 grams.

Sodium is a good conductor of electricity due to the presence of delocalized electrons in its metallic structure. It reacts vigorously with water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen.

-When exposed to air, metallic sodium recently cut looses its silvery appearance and acquires an opaque grey color due to the formation of a sodium oxide coating.

How many molecules are in 6 moles of methane
seraphim [82]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

3.6 × 10^24 molecules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept: Moles and Avogadro's number

  • We need to know that one mole of a compound has molecules equivalent to the Avogadro's number, 6.022 × 10^23.
  • Therefore; 1 mole of a compound contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

In this case;

We are given 6 moles of Methane;

But 1 mole of methane = 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

Therefore;

Molecules = Number of moles × Avogadro's number

                 = 6 moles × 6.022 × 10^23 molecules/mole

                 = 3.613 × 10^24 molecules

                 =  3.6× 10^24 molecules

Thus, there are 3.6× 10^24 molecules  in 6 moles of methane.

Compare and contrast the alkaline battery and a Zinc carbon battery. put in some other facts about them too. write somewhere aro
Snezhnost [94]
The alkaline batteries, have a higher energy density and the time a battery can remain in storage without losing any of its capacity. Also, there is a specially designed coating inside the batteries that reduces contact resistance for greater reliability. Lastly, the alkaline cells have an extra power formula to maintain power for a longer period of time in high drain devices. Alkaline batteries provide more energy than zinc carbon batteries.

The Zinc carbon batteries, are a reliable source of power for appliances that consume little energy. Some examples are: remote controls for televisions, clocks, and smoke detectors. A reason that you should use the Zinc carbon batteries is for, the low energy consumption. This will lead to being able to use the appliances for a longer time for the same money.

The difference between the batteries is the capacity. Because of composition, an alkaline battery, delivers more energy than a zinc carbon battery.
The only downside is that, both batteries need to be used in different appliances.

Hope this helps! :)
