Question

a typical baseball has a mass of 350g and takes up a volume of .780L. what is the density of a baseball in g/l and g/ml?

Answer 1

449 g/L

0.449 g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given data

• Mass of a typical baseball (m): 350 g

• Volume of a typical baseball (V): 0.780 L

Step 2: Calculate the density (ρ) of the baseball in g/L

The density is equal to the quotient between the mass and the volume.

ρ = m / V

ρ = 350 g / 0.780 L

ρ =449 g/L

Step 3: Convert ρ from "g/L" to "g/mL"

We will use the conversion factor 1 L = 1000 mL.

449 g/L × (1 L/1000 mL) = 0.449 g/mL
