Are nodal planes related to nodes in the atom? I know that p, d, and f orbitals have nodal planes so does that contribute at all to the formation of nodes in an atom?
Thx!

J=kg*m^2*s^-2
So if, for example, you get a value joules divided by kg, then that would leave you with m^2*s^-2. Hope that helps!

Sig Figs for Adding Scientific Notation
So my question is how to determine sig figs for adding scientific notation WHEN the powers of 10 are different for the two numbers. For example: 1.66 x 10^-17 + 5.9 x 10^-18 = 2.25 x 10^-17 (Problem Ch 1 #33) Solution guide says that it's three sig figs. Is it because you have to "adjust" ...

Re: Order of steps
In a combustion reaction, balancing C and H should always go first. Since O2 is always by itself, it is easiest to balance this reactant last. In general, however, like what Jennah said, the element that occurs the least should be balanced first.

Self-Test M.4A (p.F114)
"When 0.528 g of sucrose is burned, 0.306 g of water and 0.815 g of carbon dioxide are formed. Deduce the empirical formula of sucrose." I was able to get to the point where I could divide by the smallest number of moles. When I divided the number of moles of carbon by that number, I got a...
