Question

A student sets up the following equation to convert a measurement.(The ? stands for a number the student is going to calculate.)Fill in the missing part of this equation. (0.020 g/ml) *_=? g/l

Answer 1

0.02g/L

This question involves conversion of units and in this case, we are converting from g/ml to g/l.

1 g/ml = 1000 g/L

And we are given 0.020 g/ml to convert into g/L. The easiest way to do this is simply multiply 0.020 g/mL by 1000 to convert it into g/L

`0.020\text{ }(g)/(mL)*1000=20\text{ }(g)/(L)`

From the calculation above, 0.020g/ml is equivalent to 20g/L.
