A group of students took turns using a laboratory balanceto weigh the water contained in a beaker. The results theyreported were 111.42 g, 111.67 g, 111.21 g, 135.64 g,111.02 g, 111.29 g, and 111.42 g.(a) Should any of the data be excluded before the average is calculated?(b) From the remaining measurements, calculate the average value of the mass of the water in the beaker.(c) Calculate the standard deviation s and, from it, the 95% confidence limit.
Blood alcohol content is a measure of alcohol in the blood as a percentage. It is calculated in grams per 100 mL of blood, so a BAC of 0.08 means your blood is 0.08% alcohol by volume.
what is the total mass of alcohol (in grams) that is present for the same adult male whose total blood volume is 5.6L?
The total amount of fresh water on earth is estimated to be 3.73 x 10^8 km^3. What is this volume In liters?

- The mass of one atom or molecule of a substance is given in atomic mass units, also called Daltons (abbreviated D or Da). Thus one molecule of water has a mass of 18.015 atomic mass units, or 18.015 Daltons. The atomic mass unit is defined such that one mole of water weighs 18.015 g. Suppose a protein has a mass of 64 192 Daltons (or 64.192 kDa). What would be the mass of one mole of this protein? O A. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 3.866 x 1028 g/mol. B.
