1. 350 pounds = ? ton
2. 0.632 m = ? cm - answers 1. 350 pounds x 1 ton / 2000 pounds = 0.175 ton
2. 0.632 m x 100 cm / 1 m = 63.2 cm
1. 246 oK = ? oC
2. 45 oC = ? oF
3. 18 oF = ? oK - answers 1. 246oK - 273 = -27 oC
oK → oC (make smaller) -273
2. 45oC x 1.8 + 32 = 113 oF
oC → oF (make larger) x 1.8 + 32
3. 18oF - 32 ÷ 1.8 = -7.8 + 273 = 265.2 oK
oF → oC → oK
1. Show the calculation of the mass of a 18.6 ml sample of freon with density of 1.49
g/ml
2. Show the calculation of the density of crude oil if 26.3 g occupies 30.5 ml. - answers
1. M = D x V = 1.49 x 18.6 = 27.7 g
2. D = M / V = 26..5 = 0.862 g/ml

change
2. Mixing cake batter with water - mixing = physical change
3. Baking the batter to a cake - baking converts batter to new material = chemical
change
