The mass of one cubic centimeter of water at 4c is one ___1___. Scientists commonly use two equivalent units of temperature, the degree __2___ and the ____3___.

You have the first considerably in error. I will be happy to critique your thinking.

1. not quite. 1 cc of water has a mass of 1 gram.

2. the degree Celsius and Kelvin ALTHOUGH I don't think they are equivalent. A degree Celsius IS equal to a degree on the Kelvin scale and that's probably what the questioner meant. To interconvert, K = 273 + C.

1) Kilogram:

To find the correct answer, we need to consider the mass of one cubic centimeter (cc) of water at 4°C. The question states that the correct answer is not "Kilogram," so let's think about this problem.

We know that the mass of one cubic centimeter of water at 4°C is the same as the density of water at that temperature. The density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter (g/cc). Therefore, the mass of one cubic centimeter of water at 4°C is 1 gram.

So, the correct answer for the first blank is "gram," not "kilogram."

2) Degree Celsius:

Moving on to the second blank, the question asks for the unit of temperature that scientists commonly use. The answer is "degree Celsius."

However, it's important to note that the question suggests the degree Celsius is equivalent to another temperature unit. That leads us to the third blank.

3) Kelvin:

Scientists commonly use two equivalent temperature units - the degree Celsius and the Kelvin. While the degree Celsius is not directly equivalent to the Kelvin, both temperature scales have the same size degree. To convert between the two, you add or subtract 273.

So, the correct answer for the third blank is "Kelvin."

To summarize:

1) The mass of one cubic centimeter of water at 4°C is one gram.
2) Scientists commonly use the degree Celsius.
3) Scientists also commonly use the Kelvin, with the conversion formula K = 273 + C.
