The number 5E−7 in scientific notation represents \( 5 \times 10^{-7} \).
However, it seems there is likely a misunderstanding here. The conversion of 0.0005 liters to milliliters is as follows:
1 liter = 1000 milliliters, so: \[ 0.0005 \text{ liters} = 0.0005 \times 1000 \text{ milliliters} = 0.5 \text{ milliliters} \]
In scientific notation, 0.5 can be expressed as \( 5 \times 10^{-1} \) milliliters.
So, to summarize:
- The number \( 5E−7 \) (which means \( 5 \times 10^{-7} \)) does not represent the conversion of 0.0005 liters to milliliters.
- The correct scientific notation for 0.0005 liters in milliliters is \( 5 \times 10^{-1} \) milliliters.
