    How to do scientific notation and work with significant figures, any helpful tips?
    I am desperately trying to stay ahead in my chemistry class and need help
    Were are currently working on scientific notation and I somewhat get it but am still confused.
    I get lost sometimes when I try putting it into expanded form and where the decimal goes
    And also scientific notation with significant figures I don't understand when zeros are significant figures or how to use scientific notation
    Any advice/tips or help you can give about scientific notation and sig figs would be much appreciated thank you
