Question

Buttery popcorn contained in a large 1__bowl has a mass of about 50 __and about 650 calories.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Buttery popcorn contained in a large 1 liter bowl has a mass of about 50 grams of fat and about 650 calories

Explanation:

The question is about using correct units. The capacity of a bowl must be measured in a volume unit; the options were milliliter and liter. 1 milliliter is a very small amount (about 0.002 pint), so 1 liter is the correct option.

For the second blank, the options (mass units) are: microgram, milligram, gram, kilogram. Milligram is used to measure the mass of minerals, microgram is even smaller than milligram, the buttered popcorn weights much less than 50 kilograms. So, the correct option is 50 grams.

Answer 2

Answer:

Buttery popcorn contained in a large 1 liter bowl has a mass of about 50 mg and about 650 calories.

Explanation:

Liter is the most appropriate unit to measure a bowl. Usually 1 liter of liquid has a mass of 1000 gram. Since popcorn is something lightweight and only a few can fill the bowl quickly so 50 mg makes perfect sense with 1 liter of bowl and 650 calories in buttery popcorn.
