Answer:
(a) 1.95 × 10⁴ g
(b) 1.95 × 10⁷ mg
(c) 1.95 × 10¹⁰ μg
Explanation:
A dog has a mass of 19.5 kg.
<em>(a) What is the dog's mass in grams?</em>
1 kilogram is equal to 10³ grams. The mass of the dog in grams is:
19.5 kg × (10³ g/1 kg) = 1.95 × 10⁴ g
<em>(b) What is the dog's mass in milligrams?</em>
1 gram is equal to 10³ milligrams. The mass of the dog in milligrams is:
1.95 × 10⁴ g × (10³ mg/1 g) = 1.95 × 10⁷ mg
<em>(c) What is the dog's mass in micrograms?</em>
1 gram is equal to 10⁶ micrograms. The mass of the dog in micrograms is:
1.95 × 10⁴ g × (10⁶ μg/1 g) = 1.95 × 10¹⁰ μg
