To know how many significant figures are there in the following numbers, we must know the 5 rules of significant figures:

-All non-zero numbers are significant

-Zeros between two non-zero are significant

-Leading zeros are NOT significant

-Trailing zeros to the right of the decimal are significant

-Trailing zeros in a whole number with the decimal show are significant

Then,

i) 0.238 g= 3 significant figures

j) 80.033 dL= 5 significant figures

k) 3.05x10^-2 Mm= 3 significant figures

l) 0.055870 kg= 5 significant figures
