Question

The average density of Earth is 5.52 g/cm3

. Express this density in units of kg/dm3

Answer 1

To convert the average density of Earth from g/cm³ to kg/dm³, multiply the density by appropriate conversion factors.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the average density of Earth from g/cm³ to kg/dm³, we need to consider the conversion factors:

1 g = 0.001 kg

1 cm³ = 0.001 dm³

Therefore, to convert g/cm³ to kg/dm³, we can multiply the density by these conversion factors.

Using the given average density of Earth as 5.52 g/cm³:

5.52 g/cm³ x (0.001 kg/g) x (0.001 dm³/cm³) = 0.00552 kg/dm³.
