Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

What $g/\text{C}\text{C}$ unit measures?

Concept Introduction:

In chemistry general physical quantities like volume, mass of any object etc are measured in following units.

Some importance units of measurements are as follows:

Degree Celsius (${}^{\text{o}}\text{ C }$) for temperature.

Liter (L) for volume.

Meter (m) for length.

Gram (g) and kilogram (kg) for mass.

Second for (s) time.

Answer to Problem 56P

$g/\text{C}\text{C}$ unit measures density of any object.

Explanation of Solution

The density of a substance is equal to the ratio of its mass and volume. In general, the density of a substance is mass per unit volume.

$\text{density (}\raisebox{1ex}{$\text{g}$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{${\text{cm}}^{\text{3}}$}\right.\text{) = }\frac{\text{mass (g)}}{{\text{volume (cm}}^{\text{3}}\text{) }}\text{ or }\frac{\text{mass (g)}}{\text{volume (mL) }}$

$g/\text{C}\text{C}$ unit measures density of any object which is the ratio of mass and volume.
