Question

The density of blood is 1.05 kg/m3, find the mass of a bag of blood for a transfusion, if the volume is 1.5 m3.

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass of the bag of blood is 1.575 kg.

Given:

Density = 1.05 $\frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

Volume = 1.5 $m^{3}$

To find:

mass = ?

Formula used:

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Solution:

Density is given by,

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Thus,

mass = volume × density

mass = 1.5 × 1.05

mass = 1.575 kg

Mass of the bag of blood is 1.575 kg.
