When recording measurement data, why is the use of significant figures important?

Chlorine and water react to form hydrogen chloride and oxygen, like this: 2cl2 (g) + 2h2o (g) → 4hcl (g) + o2 (g) also, a chemist finds that at a certain temperature the equilibrium mixture of chlorine, water, hydrogen chloride, and oxygen has the following composition: compound concentration at equilibrium cl2 0.55m h2o 0.57m hcl 0.53m o2 0.34m calculate the value of the equilibrium constant kc for this reaction. round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Astudent states that 9.0 g of baking soda will form an unsaturated solution in 100 g of water. what do you need to know to decide whether this statement is correct? a. the temperature of the water and the molar mass of baking soda b. the percent by volume of the solution and the solubility of baking soda c. the temperature of the water and the solubility of baking soda at that temperature
