Answer:

The expression of density of the material with a density of 6 pound per pint in grams per liter (g/L) is 5756.75 g/L

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of the material is 6 pounds per pint of volume

The given conversion factors are;

1 pint (pt) = 2 cups (cups)

1 cup (cup) = 8 fluid ounces (fl oz)

Therefore;

2 cups (cups) = 2 × 8 fluid ounces = 16 fl oz

Also given;

1 fluid ounce = 29.574 mililiters (mL)

16 fl oz = 16 × 29.574 mL = 473.184 mL

1 liter (L) = 1000 mililiters (mL)

∴ 1 mL = 1/1000 L = 0.001 L

473.184 mL = 473.184 ×  0.001 L = 0.473184 L

1 pound (lb) = 0.454 kilograms (kg)

6 lb = 6 × 0.454 kg = 2.724 kg

1 kg = 1000 grams (g)

2.724 kg = 2.724 ×  1000 grams (g) = 2724 g

Therefore, with 6 lb = 2724 g and 1 pt = 0.473184 L, the density, d, of the material in grams per liter that has a density of 6 pounds per pint is given as follows;  

d = 2724 g/(0.473184 L)= 5756.75 g/L

The expression of density of the material with a density of 6 pound per pint in grams per liter (g/L) = 5756.75 g/L = 5756.75 g/L.
