Chapter 1, Problem 1.101SP
Concentrations of substances dissolved in solution are oftenexpressed as mass per unit volume. For example, normal human blood has a cholesterol concentration of about 200 mg/100mL.
Express this concentration in the following units.
(a) mg/L (b)
(c) g/L (d)
(e) How much total blood cholesterol in grams does a person have if the normal blood volume in the body is 5 L?
