Input interpretation
convert 12 kg of silicon (chemical element) to volume
Results
5.15 L (liters)
Possible intermediate steps
Convert from kilograms into liters: 12 kg of Si (silicon) Convert from kilograms to cubic centimeters using the relation 1000 g (grams) = 1 kg (kilogram) and the density 2.33 g/cm^3 (grams per cubic centimeter) at STP of Si: (12 kg)/1 × (1000 g)/(1 kg) × (1 cm^3)/(2.33 g) = 5150 cm^3 Convert to milliliters using the relation 1 cm^3 (cubic centimeter) = 1 mL (milliliter): (5150 cm^3)/1 × (1 mL)/(1 cm^3) = 5150 mL Convert to liters using the relation 1000 mL (milliliters) = 1 L (liter): Answer: | | (5150 mL)/1 × (1 L)/(1000 mL) = 5.15 L
