If a liquid has a density of 1,200 g/L, what is its density in cg/mL?
A. 1.2 cg/mL
B. 120 cg/mL
C. 12,000 cg/mL
D. 120,000 cg/mL

Respuesta :

Multiply by the conversion factors that cancel the units you have and give you the units you want.

[tex]1200\dfrac{g}{L}\times\dfrac{1\,L}{1000\,mL}\times\dfrac{100\,cg}{1\,g}=\dfrac{1200\cdot 100\,cg}{1000\,mL}\\\\=\bf{120\dfrac{cg}{mL}}[/tex]

Your best choice is ...

... B. 120 cg/mL
