Answer :

Final answer:

To write the expression 1.00x10⁻¹² multiplied by 5.00x10¹⁹ in scientific notation, multiply the coefficients and add the exponents. The result is 5.00x10⁷.

Explanation:

To write the expression 1.00x10⁻¹² multiplied by 5.00x10¹⁹ in scientific notation, we need to multiply the coefficients and add the exponents. The result will be in the form of a coefficient multiplied by 10 raised to a power.

Multiplying the coefficients: 1.00 x 5.00 = 5.00

Adding the exponents: -12 + 19 = 7

Therefore, the answer is 5.00x10⁷
