If the density of a substance is 15.2 g/mL, what is the density in cg/kl?
seems like a lot of work.
mL = 10^-3L
kL = 10^3L = 10^6mL
cg/kL = g/mL * 100cg/g * 10^6mL/kL = g/mL * 10^8
To convert the density from g/mL to cg/kL, we need to use conversion factors.
We know that there are 100 centigrams in 1 gram (cg/g), and 1 kiloliter is equal to 1,000 liters (kL/L).
First, we can convert grams to centigrams by multiplying the density by 100:
15.2 g/mL * 100 cg/g = 1520 cg/mL
Now we can convert milliliters to kiloliters by dividing by 1,000,000 (since there are 1,000,000 milliliters in a liter and 1,000 liters in a kiloliter):
1520 cg/mL / 1,000,000 mL/L = 0.00152 cg/L
Finally, to get the density in cg/kL, we multiply the density in cg/L by 1,000:
0.00152 cg/L * 1,000 = 1.52 cg/kL
Therefore, the density of the substance is 1.52 cg/kL.
change ml to cm^3, then to dm^3
change kl to 1000dm^3
15.2g/mL*1ml/cm^3*1000cm^3/dm^3 *1000dm^3/kl
now, take all that in g/kl and change the grams to cg,by multiplying 100cg/g
