Suppose you have 150. mL of a substance with a density of 42.0 g/dm3 and want to determine the mass of the substance. The calculation can be broken down into three steps. First, convert the volume from milliliters to liters. Then, convert the volume from liters to cubic decimeters. Finally, determine the mass of the sample in grams. Show the unit analysis by placing the correct components into the unit‑factor slots. The question marks (?) represent the answer to the previous step.
You want to produce a 50 g sample of glucose by evaporating to dryness a quantity of glucose solution containing 8% glucose by mass. The density of the glucose solution is 1.15 g/mL. What volume of glucose solution, in liters, must be taken for this purpose?
The diameter of a copper (Cu) atom is roughly 1.3 x10-10 m. How many times can you divide evenly apiece of 10-cm copper wire until it is reduced to twoseparate copper atoms?

In the year 2013, an estimated amount of 36 billion metrictons (1 metric ton = 1000 kg) of carbon dioxide 1CO22 wasemitted worldwide due to fossil fuel combustion and cementproduction. Express this mass of CO2 in grams without exponentialnotation, using an appropriate metric prefix
The mass of an iron nail is measured before and after being placed in a beaker of water for 2 days. It is found that 0.059 g of iron (3) oxide (rust) was produced over the 2-day period. What mass of iron in the nail reacted with the water? Assume the nail is pure iron
Convert 4.58 * 103cm3to each unit.a. L b. mL c. gal d. qtThe m in the equation for density is in italic type, meaning that itstands for mass rather than for meters. In general, the symbols forunits such as meters (m), seconds (s), or kelvins (K) appear inregular type, while those for variables such as mass (m), volume (V),and time (t) appear in italics.
In a clean and dry crucible with cover weighing 24.342 g some of the unknown hydrate (CuSO4.nH2O) was placed in the crucible to reach a mass of 27.557 g. The crucible was heated several times until it reached a final constant mass of 26.403 g. Use these measurements to complete your data sheet and show complete calculation for the missing values.
