A) 355,482.0 µL
B) 384,448.2 µL
C) 411,604.6 µL
D) 446,678.2 µL

Answer 1

To express the volume of 12.0 fluid ounces in microliters, we can convert 12.0 fluid ounces to milliliters and then to microliters. The volume of 12.0 fluid ounces is 354,882.0 µL, which is closest to option A) 355,482.0 µL.

Step-by-step explanation:

To express the volume of 12.0 fluid ounces in microliters, we need to convert the fluid ounces to milliliters and then to microliters. Since 1 fluid ounce is equivalent to 29.5735 milliliters, we can calculate:

12.0 fluid ounces x 29.5735 milliliters/fluid ounce = 354.882 milliliters.

Next, we convert milliliters to microliters by multiplying by 1000. So,

354.882 milliliters x 1000 microliters/milliliter = 354,882.0 µL.

Therefore, the volume of 12.0 fluid ounces is 354,882.0 µL, which is closest to option A) 355,482.0 µL.
