Chemistry Measurement Accuracy, Precision, and Percent Error 1 Answer anor277 Jun 14, 2016 #0.340*kg# Explanation: #1*kg=1xx10^3g#. The #"kilo"# prefix means #10^3#. And thus #(340*g)/(1000*g*kg^-1)# #=# #0.340*kg#, with respect to #"sodium acetate"#. How many moles of #"sodium acetate"# does this represent?
