Three samples of 0.12 g, 1.8 g, and 0.562 g are mixed together. the combined mass of all three samples, expressed to the correct number of significant figures, should be recorded as

Respuesta :

The mass of three samples are 0.12 g, 1.8 g and 0.562 g. (given)

During addition (mathematical operation) of significant figures following rules are followed:

1. The number of significant figures are counted.

2. Addition is done.

3. Round the answer to the least number of decimal places.

Following the above rules, the addition of mass of the three samples is as follows:

[tex]0.12 g + 1.8 g + 0.562 g = 2.482 g \simeq 2.5 g[/tex]

Hence, [tex]2.5 g[/tex] is the combined mass of all the three samples.

The total mass of all the three samples is 2.482 g.

The given parameters;

  • mass of the first sample = 0.12 g
  • mass of the second sample = 1.8 g
  • mass of the third sample = 0.562 g

The combined mass of all three samples is calculated as follows;

Total mass of the samples = 0.12 g + 1.8 g + 0.562 g

Total mass of the sample = 2.482 g

Thus, the total mass of all the three samples is 2.482 g.
