Question

The density of a solution is 1.23 g/mL. What volume of solution, in mL, do you need in order to provide 1.00 lb of solution?

Use only the conversion factors written into the problem or given below.

1 lb = 0.454 kg

Answer 1

mass = volume x density
volume = mass/density
You want a mass of 1 lb. 1 lb is 0.454 kg and that is 454 g so
volume = 454 g/1.23 g/mL = ? mL
