In order to get the sum of 2.7 and 2.47, we will add both numbers. So, 2.7 plus 2.47 would be 5.17. And the correct number of significant digits in this number is still the same, 5.17, so we have three significant numbers. Why? There are three rules in identifying the significant figures: 1. Non zeros are always significant (which this applies in our sum above). 2. Any zeros in between significant numbers are always significant. 3. <span> The final zero or zeros in the decimal portion only are significant.</span>
The answer is (D) microscopic. You can remember this, because the name is very close to "microscope," an instrument used to greatly magnify and observe tiny organisms and objects.
Answer:
Radium-226 is a radioactive decay product in the uranium-238 decay series and is the precursor of radon-222. Radium-228 is a radioactive decay product in the thorium-232 decay series. Both isotopes give rise to many additional short-lived radionuclides, resulting in a wide spectrum of alpha, beta and gamma radiations.
Answer:
A decrease in [H3O+] and an increase in pH (option a)
Explanation:
Equilibrium of water is shown in this equation
2H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻
When you add NaOH, you are modifying [OH⁻]
NaOH → Na⁺ + OH⁻
In equilibrium of water, the [OH⁻] increases
2H₂O ⇄ ↓ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻ ↑
As the [OH⁻] increases, by Le Chatellier, the equilibrium tends to decrease [H₃O⁺].
If the [OH⁻] is higher, pH is also high so the solution of water and sodium hydroxide would be totally basic.
