Your blood has a density of 1.05 g/mL. How many grams of blood would you lose if you donated 1.00 pint?
February 20th, 2023
You would lose 497 g of blood.
First you have to convert 1.00 pint to millilitres.
A US pint is different from an Imperial pint. Also, a “pint” of blood is about 450 mL.
I will assume that you are using US pints. Then
##”1.00 pint” × “473.2 mL”/”1 pint” = “473.2 mL”##
Here’s how you .
For your problem,
##”Mass” = “473.2 mL” × “1.05 g”/”1 mL” = “497 g”##
