425 cc's of a saline solution is equal to how much in lbs-weight??
 

 

Hi,

It depends somewhat on the amount of salt there is in the solution. One ounce of water weighs approximately 28.350 grams, and one gram of water has a volume of approximately 1 cc. Hence for water with these approximations (which arer very close)

425 cc = 425 gm = 425  1/28.350 = 14.99 oz.

425 cc's of saline solution will weigh very close 15 ounces which is 0.94 pounds.
