STEP 1

Assumptions1. The measurement is $23.0 \mathrm{~g}$.
. We are asked to find the number of significant digits in the measurement.

STEP 2

The number of significant digits in a measurement is the number of digits that carry meaningful information about its precision.In this case, we have the number $23.0$.

STEP 3

To determine the number of significant digits, we need to count all digits from the first non-zero digit to the last digit.

Count the number of significant digits in $23.0$.
The number $23.0$ has three significant digits the $2$, the $3$, and the $0$ after the decimal point.
So, the number of significant digits in the measurement $23.0 \mathrm{~g}$ is3.
