The density of glycerin is 1.26 g/cm3. how many pounds/foot3 is this ? use the conversion rates of 454g/1 pound and 28,317cm3/1foot3 express your answer to the correct number of significant figures

78.6 lb/ft³  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this in steps.

1. Convert grams to pounds

D = (1.26 g/1 cm³) × (1 lb/454 g)

   = 2.775 × 10⁻³ lb/cm³

2. Convert cubic centimetres to cubic feet

D = (2.775 × 10⁻³ lb/1 cm³) × (28 317cm³/1 ft³)

   = 78.6 lb/ft³

in scientific notation, the value of the  speed of light in a vacuum

  will be written as 2.995 * 10^8. when this value is represented in the form of

  a * 10^b, then, a = 2.995 and b = 8.

the value of the speed of light in a vacuum given above can also be rounded up to approximately 300000000. in this case, the scientific notation will be written as 3 *10^8.
