A chemist is mixing a highly volatile solution.
The recipe for the catalyst requires a very specific amount of liquid, written in the lab's digital log as:
\((5 \times 10^{0}) + (1 \times 10^{-1}) + (4 \times 10^{-2}) + (3 \times 10^{-3})\)
To set the manual dropper correctly, the chemist needs to see this as a standard decimal number in milliliters.
What is the standard form of the measurement?
Answer
The chemist needs to measure out milliliters.
