A 243 mL cup of whole milk contains about 45 mg of cholesterol. Express the cholesterol concentration of the milk in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m^3).

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]0.1851 \frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex]

Explanation:

We have this concentration in units of [tex]mg/ml[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{45 mg}{243 ml}[/tex]

And we need to express it in [tex]kg/m^{3}[/tex], knowing:

[tex]1 ml= 1 cm^{3}[/tex]

[tex]1 m^{3}= (100 cm) ^{3}[/tex]

[tex]1g = 1000 mg[/tex]

[tex]1 kg = 1000 g[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]\frac{45 mg}{243 cm^{3}} \frac{1 g}{1000 mg} \frac{1 kg}{1000 g} \frac{(100 cm) ^{3}}{1 m^{3}}=0.1851 \frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex]

The cholesterol concentration of the milk in kilograms per cubic meter is 0.1851 kg/m³

The calculation is done as follows;

1 mg= 10⁻⁶ kg

1ml= 10⁻⁶ m³

= 45 ÷243

= 0.1851 kg/m³

Hence the cholesterol concentration of the milk is 0.1851 kg/m³
