Question

The density of a gas is 1.25 grams/liter. Which of the following is correct to convert the density of the gas to ounce/milliliter? [1 gram = 0.04 ounce, 1 liter = 1,000 milliliter] (4 points)

Multiply 1.25 by 0.04 and divide the result obtained by 1,000
Divide 1.25 by 0.04 and multiply the result obtained by 1,000
Divide 1.25 by the product of 0.04 and 1,000
Multiply the numbers 1.25, 0.04, and 1,000

Answer 1

Multiply 1.25 by 0.04 and divide the result obtained by 1,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameter:

Density of the gas:

1.25 g/L

Now the problem here is to convert to ounce/milliliter;

1gram = 0.04ounce

1 liter = 1000mL

So;

1.25g/ L x
`(0.04 ounce)/(1g)` x
`(1L)/(1000mL)` = 5 x 10⁻⁵ounce/mL
