Work Sheet (3 – CH:1)

Q1: How many grams of aspirin are contained in a 325-mg tablet?

1g = 10 3 mg

325 mg × (1g / 10 3 mg)

0.235 g

Q2: An individual donated 1.0 pint of blood at the local blood bank. How many
liters of blood does this correspond to?

1 qt = 2 pt , 1L= 1.06 qt

1.0 pt × ( 1 qt / 2 pt) × ( 1L/ 1.06 qt)

= 0.471 L = 0.47 L ( 2 s.fig)

Q3: Convert each temperature to the requested temperature scale.

a. 20 °C to °F = °F = (20×1.8) + 32 = 68 °F

b. 298 K to °F = °C = 298 – 273 = 25 °C , °F = (25×1.8) + 32 = 77

c. 150 °F to °C = °C = (150 – 32 ) / 1.8 = 65.55 = 66 °C ( 2 s.fig)

d. 75 °C to K = K = 75+273 = 298 K

Q4: Calculate the mass in grams of 15.0 mL of a saline solution that has a density 1.05 g/mL.

g= d × v

g = 15.0 ml × 1.05 g/ml

g = 15.75 g = 15.8 g ( 3 s.fig)

Q5: If the density of a liquid is 0.80 g/mL, what is its specific gravity?

specific gravity = density of liquid/ density of water

= 0.08 g/ml / 1.00 g/ml

= 0.08
