What is the mass in grams of 1.00 gallon of water? The density of water is 1.00 g/mL.

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

hint: \[\text{mass = density} \times \text{volume}\] does that help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what's the mass and volume? lol im stupid

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

first, turn gallons into mL

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

according to this http://www.google.com/search?q=1+gallon+%3D+%3F+mL&sugexp=chrome,mod=8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 1 gallon = 3,785 mL

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

so mass = 1 g/mL x 3,785 mL what do you think is the answer then?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

btw... density is the one in g/mL and volume is the one in mL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the mass is 3785

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

yes.

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

dont forget the units... 3785 g

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay. soo 3785 = density x volume.. so whats the density and volume again

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

density is that 1 g/mL and volume is 3785 mL just remember... if you see g/mL <--that's density if you see mL <--that's volume

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thankkyou! :) got it..

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

welcome
