Determine the volume of castor oil in quart unit, which weighs 4085 grams and has the specific gravity of 0.96


Click on the button below to see the answer and explanations

lb equals 4.50 quart kg

    Weight of castor oil in grams = 4085

    Specific gravity of castor oil = 0.96

    Dividing the weight in gram with the specific gravity will give us the volume in mL. Therefore, the volume is ` 4085 / 0.96 = 4255.21 mL. `

    1 fl. oz. equals 29.57 mL, and 1 quart equals 32 fl. oz.

    Using dimensional analysis:
    `4255.21 mL × (1 fl. oz.)/(29.57 mL) × (1 quart)/(32 fl. oz.) `

    Therefore, the answer is 4.50 quart in quart unit.
