Lipoprotein is a technique for removing fat deposits from various areas of the body. How many liters of fat would have to be removed to result in a 5.0 IB weight loss? The density of human fat is 0.94 g/mL.
There are 454 g (approx) in 1 lb. Sp 5 lb x 454 g/lb = ? grams.
mass = density x volume.
You know mass, you know density, substitute and solve for volume, in mL, and convert to L.
4g/ml
To find out how many liters of fat would need to be removed to result in a 5.0 lb (pound) weight loss, we need to follow a few steps:
Step 1: Convert pounds to grams.
Since the density of human fat is given in grams per milliliter (g/mL), we need to convert pounds to grams.
1 pound (lb) = 453.592 grams (g)
Therefore, 5.0 lb = 5.0 * 453.592 g = 2267.96 g (approximately).
Step 2: Calculate the volume of fat in milliliters (mL).
Density is defined as mass divided by volume:
Density (g/mL) = Mass (g) / Volume (mL)
Rearranging the formula gives:
Volume (mL) = Mass (g) / Density (g/mL)
Using the given density of human fat (0.94 g/mL) and the weight loss in grams (2267.96 g), we can calculate the volume of fat in milliliters (mL):
Volume (mL) = 2267.96 g / 0.94 g/mL
Step 3: Convert milliliters to liters.
To express the volume in liters, we need to convert milliliters to liters.
1 liter (L) = 1000 milliliters (mL)
Therefore, to convert milliliters to liters, we divide by 1000:
Volume (L) = Volume (mL) / 1000
By substituting the previously calculated volume in milliliters into this formula, we can determine the volume in liters.
Now you can plug the values into the formula to find the answer.
