Matter and Measurement

In the universe, there is matter, energy, and void space. The universe contains energy and void space. The definition of matter can be considered as something which possesses mass and consumes space. Chemistry is that branch of science which deals with the study of matter. Under chemistry, nature, composition, and the changes occurring to matter are discussed.

Question

2-86 When each of the following measurements are length is convert to inches, using a
conversion factor obtained from the equality 1 foot =
figures should the answer have?,
12 inches, how many significant

Expert Solution

Step 1

The conversion factor used in the unit conversion has infinite number of significant digits. In the unit conversion, most of the times, the the value to be converted are multiplied or divided by the conversion factors. By the rule of significant figures for multiplication, the result should have same number of the significant figures as that value will minimum number of significant figures.
