Question

9. The smallest living organism discovered is the mycoplasm. Its mass is 1.0*10-16g.Express the mass ina. petagramsb. femtogramsc. attograms10-16=-41:0 X-4=4#9

Answer 1

mass = 1 x 10^-16

1 petagram = 1 x 10^-15 grams

multiply the mass by 1x10^-15

1x 10^-16 1x 10^-15 = 1 x 10^-31

1 femtogram = 1x10^15

Multiply the mass by 1x 10^15

1 x 10^-16 * 1 x 10^15 = 1 x 10^ -1

1 Attogram = 1 x 10^18

Multiply the mas by 1 x 10^18

1 x 10^-16 * 1x10^18 = 1 x 10^-2
