These are reactions that take in energy from the surroundings (ie energy enters the reaction, which will help you to remember the name endothermic). The energy is usually transferred as heat energy, causing the reaction mixture and its surroundings to become colder.
Taking into account the scientific notation, the result of the sum is 10.84300×10³.
- <u><em>Scientific notation</em></u>
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.

<u><em>Sum in scientific notation</em></u>
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.

If there is no net force on an object, then the object will <span>maintain it's rate of speed. Basically, net force is the change in an object's motion. If it is stationary and not moving, the object will stay stationary. If the object is moving at a rate of 2 miles per hour, it will constantly continue to move 2 mph because there is no net force.</span>
