6. 25 grams of sodium chloride is placed into a beaker. The reading on the digital balance says that
together, they have a mass of 155 grams. What is the mass of the beaker?

Respuesta :

Answer:

149 grams to 3 sig figs

Explanation:
Beaker + NaCl = 155 grams

                NaCl = 6.25 grams

Subtract the NaCl

 155 g - 6.25 g = 148.75 grams is the mass of the beaker.  But there are only 3 sig figs, so the mass should be reported as 149 grams.
