Question 1
1. Convert 0.0000726 to exponential form and explain your answer.
2. Convert 5.82 x 103 to ordinary form and explain your answer.
Answer:
1. Convert 0.0000726 = smaller than 1 = negative exponent, move decimal 5
places = 7.26 x 10-5
2. Convert 5.82 x 103 = positive exponent = larger than 1, move decimal 3 places
= 5820
Question 2
Do the conversions shown below, showing all work:
1. 28oC = ? oK
2. 158oF = ? oC
3. 343oK = ? oF
Answer:
, 1. 28oC + 273 = 301 oK oC → oK (make larger) +273
2. 158oF - 32 ÷ 1.8 = 70 oC oF → oC (make smaller) -32 ÷1.8
3. 343oK - 273 = 70 oC x 1.8 + 32 = 158 oF oK → oC → oF
Question 3
Show the calculation of the number of moles in the given amount of the following
substances. Report your answerto 3 significant figures.
1. 12.0 grams of Ca3(PO4)2
2. 15.0 grams of C9H8NO4Cl
Answer:
1. Moles = grams / molecular weight = 12..18 = 0.0387 mole
2. Moles = grams / molecular weight = 15..61 = 0.0653 mole
