The value of the given expression up to correct significant figures is $330 m^2$ .

The rule that applies for the multiplication and division is :

The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

The rule that applies for the addition and subtraction is :

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Given:

The expression: (23.4m)(14m)

To find:

The answer up to correct a number of significant figures.

Solution

Number of significant figures in '23.4' = 3

Number of significant figures in '14' = 22

$=(23.4m)(14m)\\=(23.4m)\times (14m)\\=327.6 m^2$

The number with the least significant figures is '14' is 2, so the answer will be reported up to 2 significant figures:

$=327.6 m^2\approx 330 m^2$

Number of significant figures in '330' = 3

The value of the given expression up to correct significant figures is $330 m^2$ .

Which of the following models represents an atom that is more reactive than the

Zanzabum

Answer:

Model A

Explanation:

Model A represents an atom that is more reactive than the others represented.

Valence electrons actually determine the reactivity of elements. They also determine the properties of elements.

Elements with one valence electron are highly reactive because they need low energy to remove them. They can either gain more electrons to become stable or they share/give out their electrons.

Therefore, Model A is the correct answer because it has one valence electron and its valence electron is farther from the nucleus thereby this makes it more reactive.

Rainbow [258]

Hello!

The pressure of the gas when it's temperature reaches 928 °C is 3823,36 kPa

To solve that we need to apply Gay-Lussac's Law. It states that the pressure of a gas when the volume is left constant (like in the case of a sealed container like an aerosol can) is proportional to temperature. This is the relationship derived from this law that we use to solve this problem:

$P2= \frac{P1}{T1}*T2= \frac{103 kPa}{25}*928=3823,36 kPa$

Have a nice day!
