Q: A titanium bicycle frame has a volume of $$800\ \mathrm{cm}^3$$ and a density of $$4.50\ \mathrm{g/cm}^3. $$What is its mass?

$$3.6 \times 10^3$\ \mathrm{g}$$

Q: A chemist needs to convert $$5.0\ \mathrm{cm}^3 to$$ $$\mathrm{m}^3. $$Which conversion factor should be used, and how should it be applied?

$$1\ \mathrm{cm}^3 = 1 \times 10$$^{-6}$$\ \mathrm{m}^3$$, so $$5.0\ \mathrm{cm}^3 = 5.0 \times 10$$^{-6}$$\ \mathrm{m}^3$$
