Input interpretation
convert 12 kg of potassium (chemical element) to volume
Results
14 L (liters)
Possible intermediate steps
Convert from kilograms into liters: 12 kg of K (potassium) Convert from kilograms to cubic centimeters using the relation 1000 g (grams) = 1 kg (kilogram) and the density 0.856 g/cm^3 (grams per cubic centimeter) at STP of K: (12 kg)/1 × (1000 g)/(1 kg) × (1 cm^3)/(0.856 g) = 14000 cm^3 Convert to milliliters using the relation 1 cm^3 (cubic centimeter) = 1 mL (milliliter): (14000 cm^3)/1 × (1 mL)/(1 cm^3) = 14000 mL Convert to liters using the relation 1000 mL (milliliters) = 1 L (liter): Answer: | | (14000 mL)/1 × (1 L)/(1000 mL) = 14 L
