The density of ordinary air is 1.19 g/L. What is the mass, in kilograms, of the airin a room that measures 14.5 ft x 16.5 ft x 8.0 ft?(Hint: Density is defined as d= m/v, so you need to find the volume of the roomand solve for the mass in the density equation. Make sure you do the appropriateconversions to carry out your operations. Use the correct number of significantfigures to express your answer).
