Jon performs the following calculation. (1)(2.0)(3.00)(4.000) which value from his calculation most strongly affects the number of significant figures in the answer?

Jon should report his answer to one significant digit only.

When several numbers are multiplied, the number of significant digits in the final answer is determined by the number that has the least number of significant digits.

In this case, 1 has only one significant digit, whereas 2.0 has two, 3.00 has three, and 4.000 has four significant digits. Hence, 1 strongly affects the number of significant figures in the answer.

number of molecules / avogadro's number * molecule molecular = mass

explanation:

we define a gram-molecular weight as the mass of one mole of any element or compound. a mole contains avogadro's number of units (molecules) –  

6.022

x

10

23

. so, dividing the number of molecules by avogadro's number gives us the number of moles. multiplying that by the molecular weight gives us the mass. from the periodic table we find the gram-molecular weight of u to be238 and of f to be19. so,  

u

f

6

will have a gram-molecular weight of 352g.
