The amount of blood in 1L is 150g

we know that

1 litre = 1000mL

according to unit conversion factor or factor label method


(1000mL)/(1L)=1=(1L)/(1000mL)

thus the amount of hemoglobin in 1mL will be


hemoglobin=(150)/(1000)=0.15g

Thus amount of hemoglobin in 10mL will be


=0.15x10=1.5g

The hemoglobin in 10mL = 1.5g
