ANSWER
There are 520 micrograms in 0.000520 grams
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
From the question provided, you are asked to convert 0.000520 grams to micrograms
Given information
The mass to be converted = 0.000520grams
According to standard conversion,
[tex]1\text{ microgram is equivalent to 1 }\cdot10^{-6}\text{ grams}[/tex]
Let x be the mass to be converted in micrograms
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1\text{ }\mu g\text{ }\rightarrow\text{ 1 }\cdot10^{-6}\text{ grams} \\ x\text{ }\mu g\text{ }\rightarrow\text{ 0.000520 grams} \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 1\cdot\text{ 0.000520 = x }\cdot\text{ 1 }\cdot10^{-6} \\ \text{Isolate x} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{0.000520}{1\cdot10^{-6}} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{5.20\cdot10^{-4}}{1\cdot10^{-6}} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{5.20}{1}\cdot10^{-4\text{ + 6}} \\ x\text{ = 5.20 }\cdot10^2 \\ x\text{ = 5.20 x 100} \\ x\text{ = 520}\mu g \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore, there are 520 micrograms in 0.000520 grams
