Henry divides 1.060 g by 1.0 mL to find the density of his water sample. How many significant figures should he include in the density value that he reports?

Respuesta :

1.060 g has 4 sig figs
1.0 mL has 2 sig figs

When dividing use the smaller amount of significant figures, so the density should be to 2 sig figs

2 Significant figures should be include in the density value that Henry reports.

What is Significant figure?

" Significant figure are those digit of number which are important in terms of accuracy. They are single digit number from 0 to 9, which express the message of accuracy."

According to question,

Henry divides 1.060g by 1.0mL
