Significant figures Rules: |
1. Zeros in the middle of of a number are like any other digits; they are ALWAYS significant. 2. Zeros at the beginning of a number are NOT significant; they act only to locate a decimal point 3. Zeros at the end of a number and after the decimal point AREsignificant. It is assumed that these zeros would not be shown unless they are significant. 4. Zeros at the end of a number and before an implied decimal point may or may not be significant. |

What is the ?t if a 300 cal is added to 50.0g water with the specific water heat? |
1.0 cal / g° C ?t= Q/mC
C = Q / m ?t (cal / g° C)
= 300 cal / (50.0g)(1.0cal / g°C) = 6.00 °C |
Formulas for heat |
Q = energy m = mass C = specific heat ?t = change in temperature Q=mC?t |
