Pre- Algebra Help @misty1212 could you help?
A closed container has 3.06 ⋅ 1023 atoms of a gas. Each atom of the gas weighs 1.67 ⋅ 10−24 grams. Which of the following shows and explains the approximate total mass, in grams, of all the atoms of the gas in the container? 0.47 grams, because (3.06 + 1.67) ⋅ (1023 ⋅ 10−24) = 4.73 ⋅ 10−1 0.51 grams, because (3.06 ⋅ 1.67) ⋅(1023 ⋅ 10-24) = 5.1102 ⋅ 10-1 4.73 grams, because (3.06 + 1.67) ⋅ (1023 ⋅ 10−24) = 4.73 5.11 grams, because (3.06 ⋅ 1.67) ⋅ (1023 ⋅ 10−24) = 5.1102
HI!!
i can make a guess
the number after the 10's are exponts fyi
first off it is probably \[3.06\times 10^{-23}\] right? and \[1.67\times 10^{-24}\]
correct
on no first one is \[3.06\times 10^{23}\] no minus sign
yea lol forgot
so you have to multiply \[3.06\times 10^{23}\times 1.67\times 10^{-24}\] which is the same as \[\huge (3.06\times 1.67)\times 10^{23-24}\]
need a calculator for the first part for sure
( 5.1102
So then D :D
well maybe \[5.1102\times 10^{-1}\]
5.11 grams, because (3.06 ⋅ 1.67) ⋅ (1023 ⋅ 10−24) = 5.1102
so no, not D
move the decimal over one to the left, gives \[0.51102\]
oh ok then B because of the 10^-1
\[0.51 becasue 5.1102 * 10^-1\]
