948 or 9.48 x 10^2
There are two sets of rules for significant figures
• One set for addition and subtraction
• Another set for multiplication and division
You used the set for multiplication and division.
This problem involves addition and subtraction, and the rule is
The number of places after the decimal point in the answer must be <em>no greater than the number of decimal places in every term</em> in the sum.
Thus, we have
78.9
+890.43
-21.
= 948.33
The "21" term has the fewest digits after the decimal point (none), so the answer must have no digits after the decimal point.
To the correct answer is 948 = 9.48 x 10^2. It has three significant figures.
Answer:Since there is virtually nothing in space to scatter or re-radiate the light to our eye, we see no part of the light and the sky appears to be black.
Explanation:
Isotones are nuclides that have the same neutron number but a different proton number. Therefore the answer is C. boron and carbon.
The rate of the backward reaction increases
Explanation:
It is evident that if the reaction is left to proceed spontaneously, the forward reaction is favored because it results in a decrease in pressure in the system (The total reactants have 5 moles and the products have 3 in total).
Increasing H₂O concentration is then reaction, therefore, stymies the forward reaction and favors the reserves reaction. This is because the reverse reaction will lead to reduced pressure.
