CHAPTER

The Numerical Side of Chemistry

2.1 See solution in textbook.

2.2 Ike is more accurate. Mike’s average value is 262, which is higher than the actual value; Ike’s average
value is 260, which is equal to the actual value. However, Mike is more precise because his values
have a spread of 10 1266 - 2562 and Ike’s have a spread of 36 1278 - 2422.
2.3 Jack will be more accurate. If he completely fills the half-quart container twice, the total volume will
be very close to 1 quart. However, Jill needs to estimate 1>40 of the 10-gallon container, which is
­difficult to do with much accuracy 11>40 because 1 gallon = 4 quarts2.
2.4 See solution in textbook.
2.5 The uncertainty is {0.1 gallon because the last digit in the measured volume, 16.0 gallons, is in the
tenths column.
2.6 The uncertainty is {0.01 V because the tenths value can be read from the dial (each shorter mark on
the dial is 0.1 V). Thus the first digit that must be estimated is the one in the hundredths place.
2.7 See solution in textbook.
2.8 You would express the uncertainty {0.1 in. in the measured value 600 in. by using a decimal
point—600.—to indicate that both zeros are significant.
2.9 Number of significant figures Uncertainty
10.0 3 {0.1
0.004 60 3 {0.00001
123 3 {1
2.10 See solution in textbook.
2.11 0.473 (the negative exponent means the number gets smaller).
2.12 47, 325 (the positive exponent means the number gets larger).
2.13 See solution in textbook.
2.14 0.002 35
2.15 6000

2.17 4.710 000 0 * 1013. The fact that the uncertainty is {1 million tells you the final significant digit is
in the 1-million column, which in this number is the fifth zero from the left.
2.18 4.710 000 * 10 13. The uncertainty of {10 million tells you the last significant digit is in the
10-millions column, the fourth zero from the left.
2.19 See solution in textbook.
2.20 44 miles2. The answer can have only two significant figures because of the 2.0 miles.
2.21 660. hours. The exact 3 has an infinite number of significant figures, meaning the number of signifi-
cant figures in the answer is determined by the value 220. hours. The decimal point following the
zero tells you this number has three significant figures, and that is how many the answer must have.
2.22 See solution in textbook.
2.23 See solution in textbook.
2.24 (a)  6.1 * 10 2 pounds/in. The answer can have only two significant figures because of the 2.0 in.
(b) 6.11 * 10 2 or 611 pounds/in. The answer can have only three significant figures because of the
2.00 in.
(c) 86.88 cm because the 4 you multiply by is an exact number, assumed to have an infinite number
of significant figures. Thus the product of 21.72 * 4 should contain the same number of digits as
there are in 21.72.
2.25 See solution in textbook.
2.26 1555 cm
+ 0.001 cm

+ 0.08 cm
1555.801 cm, which rounded off to the correct number of significant figures is 1556 cm.
2.27 142 cm
-0.48 cm
141.52 cm, which rounded off to the correct number of significant figures is 142 cm.
2.28 See solution in textbook.
2.29 4.736 km. The fact that 1 km is the same as 1000 m means that 4.736 km is the same as
4.736 * 1000 m = 4736 m.
2.30 25 mm. The fact that 1 mm is the same as 0.001 m means that 25 mm is the same as
25 * 0.001 m = 0.025 m.
2.31 See solution in textbook.
2.32 Because 1 mL is 1>1000 of a liter, multiply the given number of liters by 1000 to get 2.5 * 10 3
milliliters.
2.33 1 cm3 = 1 mL, which means that 246.7 cm3 = 246.7 mL.
2.34 K = °C + 273.15; therefore °C - K = 273.15; 263.5 K - 273.15 = -9.7 °C.

°F = 32 + °C = 15 °F

2.36 The volume of the cube is 10.0 mm * 10.0 mm * 10.0 mm = 1.00 * 10 3 mm3. ­Because
the problem asks for grams per milliliter, you must convert this volume to milliliters. The
easiest way to do this is to first change mm3 to cm3. Note that 10.0 mm = 1.00 cm; thus:
110.0 mm23 = 11.00 cm23 or 1.00 * 10 3 mm3 = 1.00 cm3.
The density of the cube is therefore:
4.70 g>1.00 cm3 = 4.70 g>cm3.
Because 1.00 cm3 = 1.00 mL, the density is 4.70 g>mL.
500.0 g
2.37 = 3.322 g>mL

1 lb 11.4 g
6 cups flour 1 cup flour
2.45 Conversion factors:
1 cake 120.0 g flour
1 cup flour 1 cake
6955 g flour * * = 9.660 cakes
120.0 g flour 6 cups flour
You can bake nine cakes (it’s not possible to bake a partial cake).
2.46 Your time conversion is easy enough—hours to minutes—but going from meters squared to feet
squared knowing only the conversion factors given in the chapter means several multiplications plus
squaring the factors:

m2 1h 100 cm 2 1 in. 2 1 ft 2
250.0 * * a b * a b * a b = 44.85 ft2 >min
h 60 min 1m 2.54 cm 12 in.
The answer has four significant digits because 2.54 cm in the centimeter–inch conversion factor is an
exact number.
