Answer:
0.71 gal
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Density of Diesel (ρ): 0.839 g/mL
Mass of Diesel (m): 2.3 kg
Step 2: Convert "m" to grams
We will use the relationship 1 kg = 10³ g.
2.3 kg × (10³g/1 kg) = 2.3 × 10³ g
Step 3: Calculate the volume (V) of the Diesel sample
We will use the density formula.
ρ = m/V
V = m/ρ
V = 2.3 × 10³ g/(0.839 g/mL)
V = 2.7 × 10³ mL
Step 4: Convert "V" to L
We will use the relationship 1 L = 10³ mL.
2.7 × 10³ mL × (1 L / 10³ mL) = 2.7 L
Step 5: Convert "V" to gal
We will use the relationship 1 gal = 3.79 L.
2.7 L × (1 gal/3.79 L) = 0.71 gal
Answer:
2.3 kg x1000 g/kg = 2300 g
2300 g x 1 ml/0.839 g = 2741 ml
2741 ml x 1 L/1000 ml = 2.741 L
2.741 L x 1 gal/3.79 L = 0.72 gallons
