Final answer:
To find out how many grams of glucose are in the human blood, multiply the concentration (130 mg/100 mL) by the number of 100 mL portions in the total blood volume (5.4 L converted to 5400 mL), resulting in 7020 mg, and then convert to grams to get 7.02 grams of glucose.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate how many grams of glucose are present in the human blood when the concentration is 130 mg/100 mL and the total blood volume is 5.4 L, we need to convert liters to milliliters and then use the concentration to find the mass of glucose.
First, convert the total blood volume to milliliters:
Next, find out how many 100 mL portions are there in 5400 mL:
Now, calculate the total mass of glucose using the concentration:
- 130 mg/100 mL * 54 = 7020 mg
Finally, convert the mass from milligrams to grams:
Therefore, there are 7.02 grams of glucose present in 5.4 liters of human blood at a concentration of 130 mg/100 mL.
