What piece of equipment would support a crucible being heated by a bunsen burner? (hint: already has a ring clamp)

A car's fuel efficiency is rated at 30 miles per gallon. Convert this to kilometers per liter, then calculate how many liters of fuel the car would use to drive from New York to Los Angeles (a distance of 2,789 miles).
(1 gallon = 3.78541 liters, 1 mile = 1.60934 km)
Step 1: (30 mi / 1 gal) × (1.60934 km / 1 mi) × (1 gal / 3.78541 L) = 12.75 km/L
Step 2: 2,789 mi × (1.60934 km / 1 mi) = 4,488.44 km
Step 3: 4,488.44 km ÷ (12.75 km/L) = 352.03 L
What is 0.0000055 in scientific notation?

600, 1 sig fig from 6000
What 2 pieces of equipment are used to evaporate a liquid from a solution to recover a dissolved solid?
An evaporating dish and watchglass
A satellite orbits Earth at an altitude of 400 km, completing one orbit every 92.65 minutes. Calculate its speed in km/h, then convert this to meters per second. (Earth's radius = 6,371 km, use 2πr for orbit circumference)
Step 1: Orbit circumference = 2π(6,371 km + 400 km) = 42,568.97 km
Step 2: 42,568.97 km ÷ (92.65 min / 60 min/h) = 27,580.82 km/h
Step 3: 27,580.82 km/h × (1000 m / 1 km) ÷ (3600 s / 1 h) = 7,661.34 m/s
What is the product of 2.0 X 10^4 and 3.0 X10^2 in scientific notation?
