Alright, say you want ml, but your in kilograms!

how the heck are u supposed to get from the weight of something, to its volume!? madness.

Well, thankfully we can use Avagaros number, but that only works on moles...

I guess we need moles first...

But THAT only works on Grams....

Say i have 100KG of Water, H20. (100KG)=1000g/1kg Well 100KG= 100,000 grams of H20 (O=16g H=1g H2+O= 1*2+16=18g,) theres 18 grams in a mole of H20, so we can divide by 18. 100,000/18=5555.5555 So now we are in moles of H20, lets move into Liters. Avagaros number is just the number of liters per mole. 22.4L/1M=5555.5555moles 22.4*5555.5555=124444.44444L To now get into milliliters, we need to multiply by 1000. 1000ml/1L=124444.4444L=124444444.44444ml of water.

Lets write this out entirely. 100KG*1000g/1kg/18g/mol*22.4L/1mol*1000ml/1L

Spaced out __100KG * 1000g * 1mol * 22.4L * 1000ml__ 1 1KG 18g 1mol 1L

As you can see, we are just using simple multiplication to convert our units. Nothing to hard about it.

Just remember the most important things are: Grams, Moles, and Liters. Get to Moles to have the option of Liters or Grams. Moles to Grams requires the Molecular Mass (sum of MM of the elements in the atom) Moles to Liters requires Avagaros number (22.4L per 1 mole) KG-G= 1000kg per 1 gram ml-g= 1000ml per 1 L

Just use these two facts to convert!
