501 g = _____________ng, (Use the 8 step conversion method. Express your answer using scientific notation. Include a space before and after the "x", and use the "^" for the exponent) *

Answer 1

Answer : 501 g = 5.01 × 10¹¹ ng

Explanation :

The conversions used to convert gram to nano-gram is:

1 g = 10 dg

1 dg = 10 cg

1 cg = 10 mg

1 mg = 1000 μg

1 μg = 1000 ng

As we are given:

Convert 501 g to ng.

As,

1 g = 10 dg

So,

501 g = 501 × 10 dg

= 501 × 10 × 10 cg ( 1 dg = 10 cg )

= 501 × 10 × 10 × 10 mg ( 1 cg = 10 mg )

= 501 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 1000 μg ( 1 mg = 1000 μg )

= 501 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 1000 × 1000 ng ( 1 μg = 1000 ng )

501 g = 501000000000 ng = 5.01 × 10¹¹ ng

Therefore, 501 g = 5.01 × 10¹¹ ng
