Question

A water bath in a physical chemistry lab is 1.55 m long, 0.710 m wide, and 0.570 m deep (high). If it is filled to within 3.55 in from the top, how many liters of water are in it?

Answer 1

528 liter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the tank(cuboid) = l*b*h

But volume of the water = l*b*h

Where

l= length of the tank

b = width of the tank

h = the length from the bottom of the tank,

3.55 in to m,

0.09017m

Length of the water in the tank = 0.570 - 0.09017

= 0.47983 m.

Volume = 0.47983*0.710*1.55

= 0.528 m3.

1 m3 = 1000 liter.

0.528 m3 = 0.528*1000

= 528 liter
