The density of air under ordinary conditions at 25°C is 1.19g/L . How many kilograms of air are in a room that measures 11.0ft x 11.0ft and has an 8.00 ft ceiling? 1 in. = 2.54 cm (exactly); 1L = 103cm^3

Answer :

Answer: 32.6 kg

Explanation: [tex]Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]

[tex]Volume=length\times breadth\times height[/tex]

length= 11.0 ft=335.28cm (1foot=12inches, 1 inch=2.54 cm ,1 foot=30.48 cm)

breadth =  11.0 ft = 335.28 cm

height = 8.0 ft = 243.84 cm

[tex]Volume=335.28\times 335.28\times 243.84cm^3=27410707.5cm^3=27410.7L[/tex]   [tex](1L=1000cm^3)[/tex]

[tex]1.19g/L=\frac{Mass}{27410.7}[/tex]

[tex]Mass=32618.7g=32.6kg[/tex]    (1kg=1000g)






The mass of air in a room that measures 11.0ft x 11.0ft and has an 8.00 ft ceiling is 32.6 kg.

Further Explanation:

Density

  • Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of an object.
  • Therefore density is given by mass of an object divide by its volume.  

That is; D = M/V

  • Density is measured in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³)
  • For instance the density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter (1 g/cm³)
  • However, density may be expressed in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³)
  • For Example the density water may be expressed as 1000 kg/m³.  
  • Other units of measuring density may be converted into SI units.

Volume

  • Volume is the amount of space that is contained within an object or a solid.
  • Volume of a cuboid is given by;

Volume = length x breadth x height

In this case;

Length= 11.0 ft= 335.28 cm  but; (1 foot= 12 inches, 1 inch=2.54 cm ,1 foot=30.48 cm)

Breadth =  11.0 ft = 335.28 cm

Height = 8.0 ft = 243.84 cm

Volume = 335.28 cm x 335.28 cm x 243.84 cm

             = 27410707.5 cm³

but 1L = 1000 cm³

             = 27410.7 L

But; the density is 1.19 g/L

1.19 g/L = Mass/27410.7

Mass = 1.19 g/L × 27410.7 L

        = 32618.8 g

        = 32.6 kg
