You would like to know whether silicon will float in mercury and you know that can determine this based on their densities. Unfortunately, you have the density of mercury in units of kilogram-meter^3 and the density of silicon in other units: 2.33 gram-centimeter^3. You decide to convert the density of silicon into units of kilogram-meter^3 to perform the comparison.
By which combination of conversion factors will you multiply 2.33 gram-centimeter^3 to perform the unit conversion?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

To convert gram / centimeter³ to kg / m³

gram / centimeter³

= 10⁻³ kg / centimeter³

= 10⁻³  / (10⁻²)³ kg / m³

= 10⁻³ / 10⁻⁶ kg / m³

= 10⁻³⁺⁶ kg / m³

= 10³ kg / m³

So we shall have to multiply be 10³ with amount in gm / cm³ to convert it into kg/m³

2.33 gram / cm³

= 2.33 x 10³ kg / m³ .
