What is the solution to the problem rounded to the correct number of significant figures? 8.01 × 4.1 = ? A. 32.8 B. 32.84 C. 32.
2 answers:
<u>Answer:</u> The correct option is Option D.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Significant figures are defined as the figures that represent the digits of a number which carry an important contribution to the numerical value, starting with the first non-zero digit. For Example: 105.268 has 6 significant figures because every digit carry its own contribution towards the numerical value.
Whenever there is multiplication, the answer will contain the same number of significant figures as there are in the least precise numerical value.
Significant figures in 8.01 are 3 and that in 4.1 are 2.
So, the answer of these two numerical value will contain 2 significant figures.
Hence, the correct option is Option D.

The structural formula of <span>s-allylcysteine is shown in the picture (top figure). To create its Lewis structure, draw all its bonds between elements. Each single bond contains two electrons. There is an octet rule that must be obeyed by most elements. Each element should be surrounded with 8 electrons. The hydrogen is exempted of this rule. So, there are 4 lone pairs for the S atom, 1 lone pair for the N atom, and 2 lone pairs each for the 2 O atoms.</span>
