A sample of a compound weighs 2.54 grams. how many ounces (oz.) is this equivalent to?

a. 71.9 oz

b. 0.0139 oz

c. 0.0896 oz

d. 30.8 oz

The correct answer is C. 0.0896 oz

Explanation:

Both grams and ounces are units use to measure the mass of objects. Additionally, 1 gram represents a smaller amount of mass than the one represented by 1 ounce. Indeed, 1 ounce is equivalent to 28.349 grams and therefore, 1 gram is equivalent to 0.035 ounces (1 ounces x 1 gram / 28.349 grams = 0.03527 ounces).

According to this, you can convert grams to ounces by multiplying the amount of grams given by 0.035, which is the equivalent of 1 gram to ounces. This means, to determine how many ounces there are in 2.54 you multiply it by 0.035 which is equivalent to 0.0896 ounces (2.54 x 0.03527 = 0.0896 oz).
