Question: To prepare for a laboratory period, a student lab assistant needs 125g of a compound. A bottle containing ¼ 1b is available. Did the student have enough of the compound?

Short Answer

Expert verified

No, they did not have enough of the compound.

Step by step solution

01

Determining why the student did not have enough of the compound

1lb = 453.59g

So,

\(\frac{1}{4}lb = \left( {\frac{1}{4}} \right) \times 453.59g = 113.40g\)

The student needs 125g of the compound. Therefore the available bottle is not enough for him.
