Question from komal, a student:

Hi,
I am confused that i am converting 75grams of hair spray ( liquid) into ML? but i couldn't get the answer what is perfect answer for that please help me for this thing.

thanxs and have a nice day.

Komal,

The conversion will depend on the density of the hair spray in grams per milliliter or grams per cubic centimeter (1 cc = 1 ml). If you know the density of the hair spray is D gm/ml then

If it were water then, since the density of water is 1 gm/ml, 75 grams would have a volume of 75 ml.

I hope this helps,
Penny
