Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.53P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The equation A.1-6 should be derived for the slope of the line by using the expression for the vertical distance, di from the ith data point. The expression for should be determined by finding the differentiating the value of a that minimizes this function.
Concept introduction:
Let (x1 ,y1 ),(x2 ,y2 ),........(xn , yn ) to be n data points in a given data set. It is given that a trend line should be drawn through the origin using these data points. The standard format of a line through the origin is y = ax where “a” is the slope and use the method of least square to derive the equation. In addition, when calculating the slope of the line use the vertical distance di from the ith data point (x, yi ) to the line then find the value of a that minimizes this function.

In our chemistry laboratory class, the formula for surface tension given is y=mg/2(pi) x r x f where y=surface tension, m= mass of the drop, g= gravitational acceleration, pi is 3.1415, r= outer radius of burette, f=correction factor.
Now I searched the internet and it says that the unit for surface tension is kg x m/s^2. The problem is I have grams for the mass of the drop and that the outer radius of the burette is in centimeter while the gravitational acceleration is in meter. What will happen is like this:
(1 g x 9.8 m/s^2) / 2 (3.1415) x 0.15 cm x 0.74643 (correction factor no unit)
As you can see, if I don't cancel m and cm, the unit will be g x cm x m x s^2. However if change the radius of the burette into meter, it will cancel, the unit will be g x s^2 (missing meter).
What can I do to get kg x m/s^2 as the unit for final answer?

The chemist dried the clams at 95° C overnight and ground them in a scientific blender, resulting in ~ 50 g of homogenized dry weight. A representative 61.00 mg sample was taken from the ~ 50 g of dry material and dissolved in 100.00 mL of 0.1 M HCI to create a sample solution. Using the method of standard additions, the chemist prepared five standard solutions in 100.00-mL volumetric flasks, each containing 5.00-mĹ aliquots of the sample solution. Varying amounts of a 87.0 ppb (ug · L-1) cadmium standard were added to each of the flasks, which were then brought to volume with 0.1 M HCI.
