You don't need to post the same question in two places. Just post once to get questions answered.


BTW, welcome to UTI!

Thanks, I know...poor forums etiquette but I got a test tomorrow and if it is possible it would help me immensely. Main reason I did it is that I do not know which forums is checked most often and which are ignored. Sincerest apologies!


p.s. Do you know if it is possible?

But 512 grams of water would be 512 mL. That's about as far as you can answer the question.

In brief, what DarkerLine was getting at is that the "magical conversion factor" you need for what you want to do is the liquid's density (or specific gravity if you're working in grams and milliliters).

You can look up densities you need in references like the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics; most good libraries should have a copy of that, or you might manage to find something similar on the Web. ;)

- No, we're not the kind of people who let forum posts languish without at least a cursory read. Wink

You're right about the duplicate topic, but both had identical content, and there's no evidence of an edit in either one of them. Wink
