Question

Count the sig figs in each.

A. 1.6 x 10^-2 mL

B. -1.0 x 10^-1 kJ/mol

C. 0.008900 J

D. 95500. kg

2. A chemist needs to know the mass of a sample of potassium sulfate to 2 significant digits. He puts the sample on a digital scale. The scale reads 00082.1 g. If the measurement is precise enough for the chemist, round it to 2 significant digits. Otherwise, put "no solution"

3. Multiply or divide the following measurements. Be sure each answer is entered in correct number of significant digits.

A. 0.93mol/ L x 2.00L = ______ mol

B. 961.71g / 0.87 mL = _______ g/mL

C. 0.93 g/mL x 2.80 mL = _______ g

4. A chemical engineer must report the average volume of a certain pollutant produced plants under her supervision. Here are the data

Plant. Volume of plant

New Bedford. 7.74L

South Fork. 0.42 L

Doheny. 6.782L

What is the average volume the chemical engineer should report? Make sure answer is in correct significant digits.

5. A chemistry student needs 20.0g of deithylamine for an experiment. By consulting the CRC Handbook of Chemsitry and Physics, the student discovers that the density of deithylamine is 0.706 g . cm ^-3. Calculate the volume of diethylamine the student should put out.
