Explanation / Answer

A 76 pound flask of mercury costs $146. The density of mercury is 13.534g/cm^3

What is the price of one pound of mercury?

one pound of mercury= ($146/ 76 pound ) = $1.92 ---------answer

===============================================================
What is the price of one gram of mercury?

1 lb = 453.59 g

one gram of mercury x (1 lb / 453.59 g) x ($1.92 / 1 lb) = $0.0042

===============================================

What is the price of one cubic centimeter of mercury?

one cubic centimeter of mercury = (13.534g/cm^3) x ($0.0042 / g) = $0.056

================================================================

What is the price of one cubic inch of mercury?

1 Cubic Inch = 16.39 Cubic Centimeters

one cubic inch of mercury =

= (16.39 Cubic Centimeters / 1 Cubic Inch) x ($0.056 / one cubic centimeter) = $0.917

================================================================

b) It takes 3.100 cubic inches of mercury to make one manometer.
What is the price of mercury used to make one manometer?
What is the price of mercury used to make 15 manometers?

4.700 cubic inches = one manometer

=======================================================================
b)
one manometer =

=(3.100 cubic inches / one manometer) x ($0.917 / one cubic inch of mercury) = $2.84

=15 manometers x ($2.84 / one manometer) = $42.6
