A quantity of water is poured into a graduated cylinder, which then reads 145ml. what is the mass of the water in kilograms?
Well, instead of measuring the mass of water in kilograms, let's weigh it in "quackograms." Because, you know, ducks love water, and "quackograms" just sound more amusing. So, the mass of the water is approximately 145 quackograms. Quack quack!
To determine the mass of the water in kilograms, we need to know the density of water. The density of water is approximately 1 gram per milliliter, or 1000 kilograms per cubic meter.
Since 1 milliliter is equal to 1 cubic centimeter, and there are 1000 cubic centimeters in a liter, the density of water can also be expressed as 1 gram per cubic centimeter or 1000 kilograms per cubic meter.
Given that the volume of water is 145ml, we can convert it to liters by dividing it by 1000:
145ml ÷ 1000 = 0.145L
Now, we can calculate the mass of the water:
Mass = Volume x Density
Mass = 0.145L x 1000 kg/m³
Mass = 145 kg
Therefore, the mass of the water is 145 kilograms.
To determine the mass of water in kilograms, we need to know the density of water. The density of water is approximately 1 gram per milliliter, or 1 kg per liter.
Given that the volume of water is 145 ml, we can convert this to liters by dividing by 1000 (since there are 1000 ml in a liter):
145 ml / 1000 = 0.145 liters
Now, we can multiply the volume in liters by the density of water to find the mass in kilograms:
Mass (kg) = Volume (liters) * Density (kg/l)
Mass = 0.145 * 1 = 0.145 kg
Therefore, the mass of the water in kilograms is 0.145 kg.
