Question

Very small volumes of water can be accurately measured using a scale, because each milliliter of water weighs 1 gram. To measure water this way, first put a small beaker on the scale, "zero" the scale by pressing the tare button (to "zero" it out). Be sure the readout shows a little "g" after the zero. If it says "N" the reading is not in grams. Now add the water to the beaker. Each gram that the scale reads equals 1 ml of water. Answer this: How many grams does 73 mL of pure water weigh? What is the volume (mL) of 0.23 kg of pure water?

Explanation / Answer

Ans-

IF weighing balance showing reading in N .

Here 'N' corresponds to Newton which is equal to-

1/9.80665 kg on earth.

Ans-1

73 ml of pure water weigh= 0.72 N =73g

Ans-2

0.23 kg of pure water weigh= 230 ml = 2.26 N
