Question

The density of ordinary air is 1.19 g/L. What is the mass, in kilograms, of the air
in a room that measures 14.5 ft x 16.5 ft x 8.0 ft?
(Hint: Density is defined as d= m/v, so you need to find the volume of the room
and solve for the mass in the density equation. Make sure you do the appropriate
conversions to carry out your operations. Use the correct number of significant
figures to express your answer).
