Problem 1:
During an upcoming experiment, the procedure requires that 3.25 gallons
of distilled water are added to a beaker. You quickly notice that all of the
graduated cylinders in the lab are measured in milliliters. How many
milliliters of water would we need to measure for our experiment?

Answer:

12,302.59 mL

Explanation:

The problem above requires the conversion of the unit of volume, gallon, to milliliter.

You have to take note of the following values before computing.

  • 1 L is equivalent to 0.264172 gallons
  • 1 L is equivalent to 1,000 ml

Now, we can do the conversion. Let's convert 3.25 gallons to milliliter.

1. 3.25 gallons x [tex]\frac{1 L}{0.264172 gallons}[/tex] = 12.30259 L

2. 12.30259 L x [tex]\frac{1,000 ml}{1 L}[/tex] = 12,302.59 mL

Therefore, 3.25 gallons of distilled water is equivalent to 12,500 mL of distilled water.
