350 lbm/ft3= ? g/mL
You plot A vs Conc (mg/mL) for a set of 5 standards in mg/mL and get the equation for the line as 0.962=0.310x+0.315. Solve for x and report the results with correct units and sig-figs.
Is this question really just as simple as solving for x? I feel like I'm missing something here...
A urine sample has a density of 1.030g/ml. What is the specific gravity of the sample?
