If the density of blood is 1.060 g/mL, what is the mass of 6.56 pints of blood?
[1 L = 2.113 pints]

SOLUTION:

Given the density of blood = 1.060 g/mL and

mass of 6.56 pints

We have 1L = 2.113 pints

The density of a substance can be defined as the ratio of the mass of the substance to the volume of the substance. In chemistry, density is used to measure the concentration of the substance in the solution.

The expression for density = mass/volume

ρ = m/V

m = ρV

Mass = 1.060(1000ml/1L) × 6.56(1L/ 2.113)

= 3290.8 /1000

= 3.29g

If the density of blood is 1.060 g/mL, what is the mass of 6.56 pints of blood?
[1L = 2.113 pints]

Summary:

If the density of blood is 1.060 g/mL, then the mass of 6.56 pints of blood is 3.29 grams.
