The following conversion equivalents are given: 1.0 kg = 1000 g 1.0 l = 1000 $\mathrm { cm } ^ { 3 }$ 1.0 l = 0.0353 $\mathrm { ft } ^ { 3 }$ The density of a certain liquid is 0.83 g/ $\mathrm { cm } ^ { 3 }$ . The density of this liquid, expressed in kg/ft³, is closest to A)24 kg/ft³. B)19 kg/ft³. C)21 kg/ft³. D)26 kg/ft³. E)28 kg/ft³.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert the density from g/cm³ to kg/ft³, first convert 0.83 g/cm³ to kg/cm³ by dividing by 1000, giving 0.00083 kg/cm³. Then, convert cm³ to ft³ using the given conversion 1 l = 0.0353 ft³, which implies 1 cm³ = 0.0000353 ft³. Thus, 0.00083 kg/cm³ is equivalent to 0.00083 kg/0.0000353 ft³, which is approximately 23.51 kg/ft³, closest to 24 kg/ft³.
