Chapter 2.7, Problem 2.84QAP

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The volume of the olive oil should be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

The formula of density can be express as:

  $\text{Density = }\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$

Usually the density is expressed in g/mL therefore mass must be taken in grams and volume in mL.We need to use different conversion factors to for the conversion of values to appropriate units.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The mass of the cannon ball should be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

The formula of density can be express as:

  $\text{Density = }\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$

Usually the density is expressed in g/mL therefore mass must be taken in grams and volume in mL. We need to use different conversion factors to for the conversion of values to appropriate units.
