Question
Chapter 15, Problem 4ST
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The step that should be taken after organizing a solution to a chemistry calculation before using a calculator is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Before using a calculator to perform calculations, it is better to estimate the answer. The chemistry calculations done are generally not wrong so if one starts estimating an answer before calculations it starts getting better for the person’s experience.
