Final answer:
The gluten ratio of 13mg per liter is equivalent to 13 μg/mL when converted into micrograms per milliliter.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking to convert the gluten ratio from milligrams per liter to micrograms per milliliter. To do this, we must use a two-step conversion process. First, we convert milligrams to micrograms, and then we convert liters to milliliters. We know that 1 milligram (mg) is equal to 1000 micrograms (μg), and 1 liter (L) is equal to 1000 milliliters (mL).
So, starting with the given gluten ratio which is 13 mg per L, we first convert the milligrams to micrograms:
- 13 mg * 1000 μg/mg = 13000 μg
Since we now have the amount of gluten in micrograms, we must adjust for the volume ratio from liters to milliliters:
- 13000 μg / 1000 mL = 13 μg/mL
Therefore, the gluten ratio in micrograms per milliliter is 13 μg/mL.
Your question seems incomplete. The completed version should be as follows:
A certain food has a gluten ratio of 13mg per L of the food. what is the gluten ratio in micrograms per milliliter?
