An object has a density of 16.3 g/mL and a volume of 0.46 L. Calculate the mass of the object in pounds.

The answer is

Explanation:

To find the mass of a substance given the density and volume we use the formula

From the question

Density = 16.3 g/mL

volume = 0.46 L

We must first convert the volume from L to mL

If 1 L = 1000 mL

Then 0.46 L = 0.46 × 1000 = 460 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's

mass = 16.3 × 460 = 7498 g

To convert the mass from g to lbs we use the conversion

1g = 0.0022 Ibs

If 1 g = 0.0022 Ibs

Then 7498 g = 7498 × 0.0022

We have the final answer as
