Input interpretation
convert 12 kg of chlorine (chemical element) to volume
Results
3.734 kL (kiloliters)
Possible intermediate steps
Convert from kilograms into kiloliters: 12 kg of Cl (chlorine) Convert from kilograms to cubic centimeters using the relation 1000 g (grams) = 1 kg (kilogram) and the density 0.003214 g/cm^3 (grams per cubic centimeter) at STP of Cl: (12 kg)/1 × (1000 g)/(1 kg) × (1 cm^3)/(0.003214 g) = 3.734×10^6 cm^3 Convert to milliliters using the relation 1 cm^3 (cubic centimeter) = 1 mL (milliliter): (3.734×10^6 cm^3)/1 × (1 mL)/(1 cm^3) = 3.734×10^6 mL Convert to kiloliters using the relation 1×10^6 mL (milliliters) = 1 kL (kiloliter): Answer: | | (3.734×10^6 mL)/1 × (1 kL)/(1×10^6 mL) = 3.734 kL
