Given data:
Volume of solution measured = 0.0067 L
To determine:
The number of significant figures
Explanation:
Significant figures are the number of digits that accurately describe a measured value.
As per the rules:
All non-zero digits are significant
Leading zero's i.e. the zero's after a decimal which comes before a non-zero digit are not significant
Hence in the given value 0.0067, there are 2 significant figures (6 &7)
Answer:
Digits in the measurement are significant figures are '6' and '7'.
Explanation:
Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.
Rules for significant figures:
Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 604, 6.49 and 65.4 all have three significant figures.
All zero’s between integers are always significant. For example: 5005, 4.805 and 50.06 all have four significant figures.
All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.0058 has two significant figures.
All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 4.500, 47.00 and 550.0 all have four significant figures.
Significant figures in measurement 0.0067 liter = 2
Digits in the measurement are significant figures are '6' and '7'.
