Find the number of significant figures in the following constants:
(i) `6.626 xx 10^(-34)` Js (Planck's constant)
(ii) `6.02 xx 10^(23)` (Avogadro's number)
(iii) `1.097 xx 10^5 cm^(-1)` (Rydberg's constant).
(iv) `5.29 xx 10^(-9)` cm (First Bohr's radius in H)

To find the number of significant figures in the given constants, we will analyze each constant one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Planck's Constant: `6.626 x 10^(-34) Js`** - The significant figures are determined by the digits in the number before the exponent. - The digits `6`, `6`, `2`, and `6` are all non-zero digits, which are significant. - Therefore, the total number of significant figures in Planck's constant is **4**. ...
