(a)
Interpretation:
The given number is to be rounded off to three significant digits.
Concept introduction:
A value can be rounded off up to some significant digits. When the first non-significant digit is less than five, then all significant digits are eliminated. When the first non-significant digit is greater than or equal to five, then one is added to the last significant digit and all significant digits are eliminated.

EBK INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY
- Calculate the pH and the pOH of each of the following solutions at 25 °C for which the substances ionize completely: (a) 0.000259 M HClO4arrow_forwardWhat is the pH of a 1.0 L buffer made with 0.300 mol of HF (Ka = 6.8 × 10⁻⁴) and 0.200 mol of NaF to which 0.160 mol of NaOH were added?arrow_forwardDetermine if the following salt is neutral, acidic or basic. If acidic or basic, write the appropriate equilibrium equation for the acid or base that exists when the salt is dissolved in aqueous solution. If neutral, simply write only NR. Be sure to include the proper phases for all species within the reaction. NaN₃arrow_forward
