HELP! How to convert 500L of water into mass?

Posted at: 2015-01-07 
Density of water is 1g/cm3



1m3 = 1000L



1m3 = 1*10? cm3





Step by step, please?

500 L is 500,000 mL





One mL is 1 g.





So, you have 500,000 g.

I have your additional details.



Note that the properties of water are fundamental to



the System International (SI or metric).



The unit of mass is defined by one cm3 of water at 5°C = 1 gram



One liter of water = 1,000 cm3 = 1 kg = 1,000 ml



1 m3 = 1,000 liters = 1,000 kg = 1 tonne (metric)



Density is defined as the ratio of mass/volume (water = 1.000)



500 liters = 500 kg

500 kilograms

1 Liter = 1,000 cubic centimeters = 1,000 cm3 (= 1,000(10^-2 cm/m)3 = 1 x 10^-3 m3)

So 500 Liters = 500,000 cm3

The mass of 500 Liters = (500,000 cm3)(1 g/cm3) = 500,000 g = 500 x 10^3 grams = 500 kilograms

Mass = Volume * Density



1L = 1000 cm3



Mass of 500L of water = 500L * 1g/cm3 * [1000 cm3/1L] = 500000 g = 500 kg

Density of water is 1g/cm3



1m3 = 1000L



1m3 = 1*10? cm3





Step by step, please?
