The number of significant figures in 0.0500L is
Show Hint
- one
- two
- three
- four
five
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: In the value 0.0500L, the zeros following the decimal point but preceding non-zero digits are not counted as significant.
Step 2: The two zeros after the non-zero digits '5' are significant because they are trailing zeros in a decimal portion of the number.
Step 3: Therefore, there are three significant figures (5, 0, 0) in the measurement 0.0500L.
