I am studying for a chemistry test can anyone demostrate the following question for me please...
1.Calculate the number of millimeters of water in a cubic foot of water.
2.Make the following conversions and include an equation for each one:
162 degrees farenheit to Celsius
0.0 F to K
-18 C to Farenheit
212 K to Celsius
3. One liter of homogenized whole milk has a mass of 1032 grams. What is the density of the milk in grams per milliliter? in Kilograms per liter?

Hi, dearluv20! I am moving this thread to the Student Assistance Forum, where you will be more likely to get the help you need! :)

1FT(3)=1728IN(30)/1FT(3) X16.3871CM(3)/1IN(3)x1ML/1CM(3)=
just multiply and divide across and cancel common units
*162f-32 X 5/9=
*0f -32c x 5/9 = answer--take that answer and plug into
(answer)c-273.15= answer in Kelvins
* 18c X 9/5 + 32 =F
*212K +273.15=C
sorry bout last one--not enough time, I am walking out of the office :) Hope it helped though
oops ...first line should read:
"1ft(3)=1728in(3)/1ft(3) x16.3871cm(3)/1in(3)x1ml/1cm(3)=
just multiply and divide across and cancel common units "
the 3's in parentheses are cubed signs--couldnt figure out the superscript thing
i created a paint file where i "hand wrote" the first problem and saved it as an image --it would probably help if you saw how i would write it as opposed to typing it..i can email it if you like

1.calculate the number of millimeters of water in a cubic foot of water.
you're on your own with this one. are you sure you copied the question correctly?
2.make the following conversions and include an equation for each one:162 degrees farenheit to celsius0.0 f to k-18 c to farenheit212 k to celsius

however, here are the answers, so you can double check your calculations:
3. one liter of homogenized whole milk has a mass of 1032 grams. what is the density of the milk in grams per milliliter? in kilograms per liter?
therefore, going from grams/liter to grams/milliliter
going from grams/liter to kilograms per liter
The first question is a typical problem that would be asked in Chemistry....they are all solved using Dimensional Analysis but the first one takes it one step further by converting from metric to standard measurements.
Thankyou everyone I really appreciate yall for the help. It really help me out for the pop quiz that I had today.
