Divide 12.936 by 3.2 using the correct number of significant digits.A. 4.0425 B. 4.043 C. 4.0 D. 4.04

Answer»

ANSWER :

As, we have to find the Division of 12.936 and 3.2, USING significant digits.

So,

★ Number of significant digits in 12.936 = 5

★ Number of significant digits in 3.2 = 2

Now, we will calculate their product.

Division = 4.0425

\Large{\implies{\boxed{\boxed{\sf{Division = 4.0425}}}}}

So, option A is correct.

★ Additional Information :

☯ Uncertaininty in measurment

When true value is not equal to experimemtal calculations then there os uncertainty in measurment.

↪ For example 2G of \sf{H_2}

Molecules = 602,200,000,000,000,000,000,000

But if we WRITE (602,200,000,000,000,000,000,000) as 6.022 × 10²² then our uncertainty in measurement can reduce.

\rule{100}{2}

Now, Mass of H atom.

0.00000000000000000000000166

But if we write (0.00000000000000000000000166) as 6.61 \times 10^{-25} then our uncertainty in measurement can reduce.

→ Meaningful to present the data, realisitiolly accurating with uncertainity.

\rule{150}{2}

★ There are three ways to reduce the uncertainty in measurement.

(i) Scientific Notation

(ii) Significant figures

(iii)Dimensional analysis
