Taking into account the scientific notation, the result of the sum is 10.84300×10³.

Scientific notation

First, remember that scientific notation is a quick way to represent a number using powers of base ten.

The numbers are written as a product:

a×10ⁿ

where:

a is a real number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10, to which a decimal point is added after the first digit if it is a non-integer number.
n is an integer, which is called an exponent or an order of magnitude. Represents the number of times the comma is shifted. It is always an integer, positive if it is shifted to the left, negative if it is shifted to the right.

Sum in scientific notation

You want to add two numbers in scientific notation. It should be noted that when the numbers to be added do not have the same base 10 exponent, the base 10 power with the highest exponent must be found. In this case, the highest exponent is 3.

Then all the values are expressed as a function of the base 10 exponent with the highest exponent. In this case: 9.7300×10²= 0.97300×10³

Taking the quantities to the same exponent, all you have to do is add what was previously called the number "a". In this case:

0.97300×10³ + 9.8700×10³= (0.97300+ 9.8700)×10³= 10.84300×10³

Finally, the result of the sum is 10.84300×10³.

Which element will be more reactive - Mg (magnesium) OR Se (Selenium)? *

anygoal [31]

Answer:

magnesium

Explanation:

magnesium is in Group 2, in the periodic table. this means that it has 2 valence electrons. the less valence electrons an element or atom has, the more reactive. Selenium has 6 valence electrons. as a result, Mg is more reactive

In the reaction C + O2 → CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be n

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

54 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of carbon = 18 g

Mass of CO₂ = 72 g

Mass of oxygen needed = ?

Solution:

Chemical reaction:

C + O₂ → CO₂

according to law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by French chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

In a similar way,

C + O₂ → CO₂

18 g + X = 72

X = 72 -18

X = 54 g

Thus, 54 g of O₂ are required.

When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, the directions say to put the 255 grams of filled pasta into 3 quarts of boiling water. why

kondaur [170]

When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, you should use three quarts of water instead of one so that the raviolis have room to move around in the boiling water and so that while they are moving around, they will not stick to each other or the pan.
