How many micrograms (mcg) are in 2 grams (g) of sugar? Conversion factors: 1000 mcg = 1 mg, and 1000 mg = 1 g. Show all work using dimensional analysis

1 answer

To convert from grams to micrograms, we need to use the conversion factor that 1 g = 1,000,000 mcg.
So, if 1 g = 1,000,000 mcg, then 2 g = 2 * 1,000,000 mcg = 2,000,000 mcg.

Therefore, there are 2,000,000 micrograms (mcg) in 2 grams (g) of sugar.
