Which options correctly describe the procedures used to determine the number of significant digits in a reported quantity?
Start at the left and move right until you reach the first nonzero digit. All digits from the first nonzero digit onward (going to the right) are significant, if there is a decimal point. If the quantity has no decimal point, zeros to the right of the nonzero number may or may not be significant.
Which of the following statements correctly describe a chemical change?
