In the United States, car fuel efficiency is expressed in miles per gallon of gasoline. However, fuel efficiency can also be expressed in kilometers per liter of gasoline. If the fuel efficiency of a car is 11.0 km/L, what is its fuel efficiency in miles per gallon? [1 mile = 1.61 km, 1 gallon = 3.79 L]

Suppose you have a car which gets 51 miles per gallon of gasoline in the city. Suppose you take the car to Canada. Then you fill it up at a gas station in Canada. How many kilometers should the car be able to drive on city streets on 1.7 liters of gasoline? (Note: 1 mile = 1.609 km, 1 gallon = 3.78541 L)
Dimensional Analysis is a way of doing numerical "book-keeping" when converting quantities or performing calculations. • When converting quantities from one unit to another, conversion factors are used. Solving with Dimensional Analysis and Multiple Units: If I am in Canada where the price of gas is $1.022 USD·L1, how much will it cost me to fill up my gas tank if I travelled 125 km? • Let's also assume that my car gets an average of 30.0 miles/gallon.
Combining one atom of carbon with two atoms of oxygen produces one molecule of carbon dioxide, along with 6.5 x 10-19 J of energy. In 2019, the United States burned enough coal to supply 1.1 x 1019 J of energy. Assuming that coal is roughly 100% carbon, how many molecules of carbon dioxide did the U.S. produce by burning coal in 2019? Less than 1036 molecules of carbon dioxide. Between 1036 and 1038 molecules of carbon dioxide. Between 1038 and 1040 molecules of carbon dioxide. More than 1040 molecules of carbon dioxide.
Blood alcohol content is a measure of alcohol in the blood as a percentage. It is calculated in grams per 100 mL of blood, so a BAC of 0.08 means your blood is 0.08% alcohol by volume. what is the total mass of alcohol (in grams) that is present for the same adult male whose total blood volume is 5.6L?

(b) Air is about 21% oxygen by volume (d = 1.309 g/L at 25°C, 1 atm). How many liters of air are required to completely react with the tin foil? |D
The volume of water in large scale reservoirs is often measured in units of an acre-foot, which is the amount of water covering one acre of surface to a depth of one foot. An acre-foot is equivalent to 43,560 ft³. A particular water tower in town was constructed to hold 2.95 acre-feet of water. What is the volume of water in liters that the water tower will hold? ( 1 US liquid gallon = 231 cubic inches, 3.785 liters = 1 US liquid gallon)
CHEMISTRY Calculating Density Density is the compactness of matter. Density describes the quantity of matter (mass) per unit of volume (3-dimensional space). Density is calculated as the mass of the matter divided by volume. The symbol for density is Greek letter rho (p). The units for mass are in grams (g) and the units for volume is cubic centimeter (cm³). It should be noted that 1 cm³ is equal to 1 ml of volume. 1 cm³= 1 ml. The units for density are g/cm³. Part 1 Determine the density of the new liquid materials created in the Secret Density Research Laboratory. Type the value (no units) of the density into the boxes in the density column. Report density to the 2nd number after the decimal. Use a zero to the lef of the decimal for values less than 1.00. Examples: 2.35, 0.75, 1.90 Material name Harrisonite Waltonium Kellese Wheelernone Osborneum Popebrillium Mass (g) 430 590 260 m P=V 620 380 510 Volume (cm³) 537 454 236 364 633 340 Density (g/cm³) SAMSUNG
About two centuries ago, Benjamin Franklin showed that 1teaspoon of oil would cover about 0.5 acre of still water. If you know that 1.0 x 104 m2= 2.47 acres and that there is approximately 5 cm3 in a teaspoon, what is the thickness of the 0.5-acre layer of oil? How might this thickness be related to the sizes of molecules?
