Question

Lodine has a density of 4.94 g

/mL. What is its density in lb/gal? (1 gal= 3.785 L and 1 lb = 454 g) *

41.2 lb/gal
18.7 lb/gal
8490000 lb/gal
0.0412 lb/gal
348 lb/gal

Answer 1

41.2 lb/gal

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Density of iodine: 4.94 g/mL

Step 2: Convert the mass to grams

We will use the conversion factor 1 lb = 454 g.

4.94 g/mL × (1 lb / 454 g) = 0.0109 lb/mL

Step 3: Convert the volume to gal

We will use the conversion factors 1 gal= 3.785 L and 1 L = 1,000 mL.

0.0109 lb/mL × (1,000 mL/1 L) × (3.785 L/1 gal) = 41.2 lb/gal
