Will 1,535 ml of Water Fit in a 15x10x10 cm Container?

In summary, the conversation discusses transferring a quantity of water with a volume measurement of 1,535 +/- 10 ml into a regular orthogonal container with interior dimensions of 15.0 +/- 0.1 cm long, 10.0 +/- 0.1 cm wide, and 10.0 +/- 0.1 cm deep. The question is whether the water will fit in the container and justification is needed.

Homework Statement



Suppose you have a quantity of water with a volume measurement of 1,535 +/- 10 ml. This quantity of water is to be transferred into a regular orthogonal container whose interior dimensions measure 15.0 +/- 0.1 cm long, 10.0 +/- 0.1 cm wide, and 10.0 +/- 0.1 cm deep. If you attempt to pour the water into the container, it may fit or it may just fit or it may not fit. Predict whether the water will fit and provide the justification for your answer.

Welcome to PF!

May I ask why you left the areas below "2. Homework Equations " and "3. The Attempt at a Solution " blank? Surely you must have some idea!

Oh well, because it's Thursday, here's a hint... you could start by expressing the volume of the container as "... +/- ... cm³".
How much ml is that?
 

FAQ: Will 1,535 ml of Water Fit in a 15x10x10 cm Container?

1. How can I calculate the volume of a container?

The volume of a container can be calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height of the container. In this case, the volume would be 15 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm = 1500 cm3.

2. How much space does 1,535 ml of water occupy?

1,535 ml of water would occupy 1,535 cm3 of space.

3. Will 1,535 ml of water fit in a 15x10x10 cm container?

Yes, 1,535 ml of water will fit in a 15x10x10 cm container. The volume of the container is 1500 cm3, which is larger than the volume of the water (1,535 cm3).

4. Is it possible to fit more than 1,535 ml of water in a 15x10x10 cm container?

No, it is not possible to fit more than 1,535 ml of water in a 15x10x10 cm container. The volume of the container can only hold up to 1500 cm3 of water.

5. How can I convert milliliters to cubic centimeters?

Since 1 milliliter is equal to 1 cubic centimeter, there is no need for conversion. 1,535 ml is equivalent to 1,535 cm3.
