Step 1 - Converting L to ml
1 L corresponds to 1000 ml. Since the volume of the gas sample is 425 L, we can convert it to ml by multiplying by 1000:
[tex]V=425\times1000=425000\text{ ml}[/tex]
Step 2 - Converting L to gallons
1 L corresponds to 0.26 gallon. Since the volume of the gas sample is 425 L, we can convert it to gallon by multiplying by 0.26:
[tex]V=425\times0.26=110.5\text{ gallon}[/tex]
Step 3 - Writing the results in scientific notation
To express a number in scientific notation, the number must be between 1 and 10. The first result, 425000 ml, can be expressed as:
[tex]425000ml=4.25\times10^5ml[/tex]
The second result, 110.5 gallons, can be expressed in scientific notation as:
[tex]110.5\text{ gallons=1.105}\times10^2\text{ gallons}[/tex]
