The given information is:

- The test tube has a volume of 7.2 cm^3

To find how many liters of water will completely fill the test tube, we need to convert cm^3 to liters, as follows:


\begin{gathered} 7.2cm^3*(1ml)/(1cm^3)=7.2ml \\ \\ 7.2ml*(1liter)/(1000ml)=0.0072liters \end{gathered}

Therefore, 0.0072 liters will completely fill the test tube.
