The density of a certain liquid is 50 grams per cubic centimetre.what is the mass ,in kg ,of 5 kilometers (5m^3) of this liquid
The mass of 5 kilometers (5m^3) of this liquid is 250 kg.
Calculation:
Density = Mass/Volume
50 g/cm^3 = Mass/5m^3
Mass = 50 g/cm^3 x 5m^3
Mass = 250 kg
5 kilometers (5m^3)
NO! 5 km^3 = 5 * 10^6 m^3
density = 0.050 kg /10^-6 meter^5
( 0.050 kg/ 10^-6 m^3 ) * 5 * 10^6 = 0.25 * 10^12 kg
