2. (4 points) Normal body temperature is 98.6°F. Calculate the temperature in

a) Celsius

To convert from °F to °C use the following formula: C = (5/9) * (F - 32).
Thus the temperature = (5/9) * (98.6 - 32) = 37°C.

b) Kelvin

To covert from °C to K use the following formula: K = °C + 273.
Thus the temperature = 37 + 273.15 = 310 K.

4. (2 points) The specific heat of barium is 0.192 joule per gram degree Celsius. The specific heat of gold is 0.129 joule per gram degree Celsius. If 20.0 calories are added to 5.0 grams each of barium and gold, both at the same temperature, which element will have the higher final temperature?

Since gold has the lower specific heat of the two (0.129 < 0.192) it will have a higher temperature increase. Since both samples start off at the same temperature, the gold will have a higher final temperature.

6. (10 points) Complete the following table:

a) 1 pound = 453.6 g

b) 1 liter = 1.057 qt

c) 1 in = 2.54 cm

d) 1 g = 1,000 mg

e) 1 km = 1,000 m

f) 1 L = 10^12 pL

g) 1 m = 100 cm

h) 1 g = 10^6 µg

i) 1 cal = 10 dcal

j) 1 erg = 10^9 nerg

7. (5 points) Calculate the density of a box having a ...
