Answer:

So we are given with the mass while we are asked for the amount of volume. So this means, we must need an information on the density. From literature, the density of human fat is 0.918 g/cm³. Convert grams to lb by the conversion that 1,000 g = 2.2 lbs.

Density = 0.918 g/cm³ * (2.2 lbs/1,000 g) = 0.0020196 lb/cm³

Volume = Mass/Density = 12.2 lb / 0.0020196 lb/cm³

Volume = 6,040.8 cm³

The cathode electrode is copper. This means that the concentration of copper must be increased to increase the cell potential. This can be done by diluting the Al3+ solution. Increasing the surface area will not change the current but will increase the voltage. The answer is (D) I and III only.
