Interpretation : The type of problems that can be solved using dimensional analysis is to be reviewed.
Concept Introduction : Dimensional analysis is a useful method for resolving conversion problems where measurements in one unit are changed to equal measurements.
Answer to Problem 51LC
The types of problems that can be solved using dimensional analysis are conversion of temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, conversion of weight from gram to kilogram, conversion of distance from centimeter to meter, conversion of time from day to seconds, etc.,
Explanation of Solution
Dimensional analysis is a technique that is used for the dimensions of measurement or units to analyze and fix problems.
The dimensional analysis makes it simple to address many chemistry problems.
The dimensional analysis is used to convert one unit of the number to another unit with equivalent measurement.
The problem types include the conversion of Celsius to Kelvin in temperature, meters to other meters, grams to other grams, second-to-day calculations in time, etc.
