1One measure of solubility is concentration in grams per liter. What is the concentration of copper(II) ions, in grams per liter, measured in a 0.200 L sample of water in which 0.00026 g of copper(II) ions are present?
- A0.0013 g/L or 1.3 x 10^-3 g/L
- B770 g/L or 7.7 x 10^2 g/L
- C0.000052 g/L or 5.2 x 10^-5 g/L

5A particular laboratory thermometer provides readings that are consistently 0.6ºC less than the true value. Five measurements of the temperature of a well-stirred ice-water mixture were obtained with the thermometer. The measurements were -0.6ºC, -0.6ºC, -0.6ºC, -0.5ºC, and -0.6ºC. Select the option that correctly states whether the thermometer can be used to correctly determine the temperature change of a chemical reaction and states the correct reason.
- ANo, because measurements made with the thermometer are not precise enough to make up for the inaccuracy of the temperature readings.
- BYes, because although the measurements will be inaccurate, the precision of the thermometer makes up for the inaccuracy of the instrument.
- CNo, because measurements taken with an instrument known to be inaccurate can never be used to determine accurate values.
- DYes, because the measurements are inaccurate by the same amount, so the difference in two measurements of temperature will be accurate.
6In studying a researcher's laboratory notebook, you observe a mass measurement recorded as 0.07070 g. How many significant figures does the mass measurement have?
- A4

- D215,000 or 2.15 x 10^5
9What is the value of the following expression in correct significant figures?
28.0/13.483 =- A2.0767
- B2.1
- C2.077
- D2.08
10Which of the following is in incorrect scientific notation?
- A81.3 x 10^4
- B9 x 10^2
- C7.77 x 10^0
- D1.00 x 10^-13
1110^3
10^-3
10^6
10^-6- A10^3 = Kilo (k)
10^-3 = milli (m)
10^6 = mega (M)
10^-6 = micro (μ) - B10^3 = milli (m)
10^-3 = Kilo (k)
10^6 = mega (M)
10^-6 = micro (μ) - C10^3 = Kilo (k)
10^-3 = milli (m)
10^6 = micro (μ)
10^-6 = mega (M)
- A10^3 = Kilo (k)
12Order the following measurements from largest to smallest: 10 ng, 100 g, 30 kg
- A10 ng, 100 g, 30 kg
- B30 kg, 10 ng, 100 g
- C30 kg, 100 g, 10 ng
- D10 ng, 30 kg, 100 g
13A particular photon of infrared light has a wavelength of 7.35 x 10-7 m. Given the conversion factor 1 nm = 10-9 m, express the wavelength of the photon in nanometers (nm).
