To convert microliters to liters, you need to remember that 1 microliter (µL) is equal to \(1 \times 10^{-6}\) liters. So, to convert 43 microliters to liters, you multiply 43 by \(1 \times 10^{-6}\): \[ 43 \mu \mathrm{L} = 43 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{L} \] Now to express it in proper scientific notation, you rewrite 43 as \(4.3 \times 10^1\): \[ 43 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{L} = 4.3 \times 10^{1} \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{L} = 4.3 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{L} \] So, you have: \( 43 \mu \mathrm{~L}=4.3 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{L} \) Thus, the coefficient is 4.3 and the exponent is -5.
