Answer 2

The number of significant figures in number 2.3500 are 5.

Rules of Significant Figures:

• All the non-zero digits are significant.

• Zeros which are in between non-zero digits are also significant.

• A trailing zero or the zeros at the end in the decimal portions are significant.

• Zeros are not significant after decimal points before non-zero digits.

• Leading zeros are not significant.

Examples: 1.6578,2356,978 all are non-zero digits and they are significant.

2. 39000093 The zeros which are in between non-zero digits, are significant.

3.9.89000 trailing zeros are significant.

4. 0.009 Leading zeros are not significant.

Here the number given is 2.3500, so it has 5 significant figures, as 2,3,5 are non-zero digits and the last two zeros are trailing zeros.
