METRIC DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS

Practice I

• Show all of the following unit conversion problems using the factor label method.

• Show all work, round to correct sig digs and all answers must have units.

Introduction & Examples

o Convert 92 centuries to years

o If 2.54 cm = 1.00 inch, convert 46.5 inches to centimeters.

o Convert 84 miles to kilometers (there are 0.6 miles in a kilometer)

o Convert 27 months to fortnights (there are 14 days in a fortnight and ~30 days in a month)

1 step

1. A piece of property is found to be 499 decimeters (dm) long. Find the length in (cm)?

2. How many millimeters are there in 5.97 x 10-6 meters (m)?

3. A book is found to have a mass 0.6321 kilogram (kg). Calculate its mass in grams (g).

4. Calculate the number of kilometers (km) there are in 1.549 millimeters (mm). 2 steps

5. How many decigrams (dg) are there in 0.822 milligram (mg)?

6. A 2.50 L bottle of soda contains how many milliliters (mL)?

7. What is the mass in kilograms of a 2.20 x 105 gram bag of fertilizer?

8. 2356 decigrams is equivalent to how many grams?

2 Step

Cubed Units 1mL = 1cm3 and 1L = 1dm3

1. How many cubic meters (m3) are there in 4312 cubic centimeters (cm3)?

2. How many cubic decimeters (dm3) are there in 1.733 x 105 cubic meters (m3)?

3. Calculate the number of cubic centimeters (cm3) in 16 cubic meters (m3).

4. How many cubic kilometers (km3) are there in 4.261 x 104 cubic meters (m3)?

5. The volume of a sample of water is found to be 86.3 cubic centimeters (cm3). What is the volume of the sample in cubic millimeters (mm3)?

Volume

1. Convert 17.3 cm3 to L. Remember, 1mL = 1cm3 and 1L = 1dm3

2. Convert 565 deciliters (dL) to dm3.

3. Convert 3.0 dm3 to mL.

4. Convert 45 L to cm3.

Derived Units

1. Convert 67 g/cm3 to kg/dm3.

2. Convert 18.8 m/s to cm/s

3. Convert 143 km/hr to m/s.

Density = mass/volume

1. What is the volume, in milliliters, of a sample of helium that has a mass of [pic]g, given that the density is 0.17847 g/L?

2. What is the volume, in decimeters, of a sample of helium that has a mass of [pic]g, given that the density is 0.17847 g/L?

3. What is the mass, in grams, of a sample of helium that has a volume of [pic] , given that the density is 0.17847 g/L?

4. Calculate the volume of a sample of aluminum that has a mass of 3.057kg. The density of aluminum is 2.70g/cm³.
