Question

Convert the density of water, 1.00 g/mL to lb/ft3. Provide only the numerical value in your answer with the correct number of significant figures.

Answer 1

Answer:

The density of water $1.00 g/ml=62.43 lbs/ft^3$.

Explanation:

Density of water = 1.00 g/mL

1 lb = 453.592 g

$1 g=\frac{1}{453.592} lbs$

$ft^3=28316.8 mL$

$1 mL=\frac{1}{28316.8} ft^3$

Density of the water in $lb/ft^3$:

$\frac{1.00 g}{1 mL}=\frac{1.00}{453.592 } lb\times \frac{28316.8 }{1 ft^3}$

$=62.43 lbs/ft^3$

The density of water $1.00 g/ml=62.43 lbs/ft^3$.
