Answer:

The chemical engineer should report average volume of 15.34 L.

Explanation:

Volume of Macon = 0.519 L

Volume of Allegheny = 44.67 L

Volume of Doheny = 0.826 L

Average of the volume of the pollutants:

\frac{0.519 L+44.67 L+ 0.826L}{3}=\frac{46.015 L}{3}=15.33833 L

The rule apply for the addition and subtraction is :

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Here the 44.67  has two significant digit after decimal point.So the answer will be reported as in with 2 significant figures after decimal point.

15.33833 L\approx 15.34 L

The chemical engineer should report average volume of 15.34 L.

A 232 mL cup of whole milk contains about 27 mg of cholesterol. Express the cholesterol concentration of the milk in kilograms p
son4ous [18]

Explanation:

Cholesterol concentration = 27 mg/ 232 mL

Change unit mg/ml to kg/m³

1 kg = 1000 g

1 g = 1000 mg

1 kg = 1000000 mg

1 kg = 10⁶ mg

10⁶ mg = 1 kg

1 mg = 10^-6 kg

m³ = 1000 L

1 L = 1000 mL

m³ = 1000000 mL

m³ = 10⁶ mL

10⁶ mL = m³

1 mL = 10^-6 m³

Cholesterol concentration = 27 mg/ 232 mL

27 × 10^-6 kg/ 232 × 10^-6 m³

= 27/232 kg/m³
