In chemistry lab, a student measured the density of liquid ethanol is 0.789 g/mL. Represent its density in units of 1b /in3? (2.54 cm = 1 in., 2.205 lb = 1 kg) A. 9.09 x 10+ 1b / in
B.4.42 x 10-1b / in?
OC.2.85 x 10-2 16 / in
D. 0.106 16 / in?
O E.5.86 x 10" 16/in3

The density of liquid ethanol is 0.789 g/mL, which is equivalent to 0.0285 lb/in³.

A student measured the density of liquid ethanol to be 0.789 g/mL and we want to convert it to lb/in³. We will need a series of conversion factors.

A conversion factor is an arithmetical multiplier for converting a quantity expressed in one set of units into an equivalent expressed in another.

We will use the following conversion factors:

0.789 g/mL × (1 kg/1000 g) × (2.205 lb/1 kg) = 1.74 × 10⁻³ lb/mL

We will use the following conversion factors:

1.74 × 10⁻³ lb/mL × (1 mL/1 cm³) × (2.54 cm/1 in)³ = 0.0285 lb/in³

The density of liquid ethanol is 0.789 g/mL, which is equivalent to 0.0285 lb/in³.

Option C is correct option = 2.85×10⁻² lb/in³

Explanation:

Given data:

Density in g/mL = 0.789

Density in lb/in³ = ?

Solution:

It is given that,

2.54 cm = 1 in

2.205 lb = 1 kg   thus,

1 mL = 1 cm³

0.789 g/cm³ × 1 kg/ 1000 g × 2.205 lb/1 kg × (2.54 cm / 1in)³

2.85×10⁻² lb/in³
