Question

how many milliseconds are in a second; centigrams in a gram? i read, like, my entire chem. book and i cant find it anywhere

Answer 1

1000. 100.

Answer 2

I believe 1,000 milliseconds are in a second, and 100 centigrams in a gram since the prefix Milli- means one thousandth and cent- means one hundredth

Answer 3

1000 milliseconds in a sec
100 centi grams in a gram
Look inside the front cover or type it into google and it will convert anything just about.

Answer 4

1,000 milliseconds in a second

100 centigrams in a gram

Answer 5

You can remember this by using a rhyme.
King Henry Died BellyUp Drinking Chocolate Milk.
K-Kilo
H-Hecta
Dk-Deca
Bu-Basic unit (gram, meter, liter)
D-Deci
C-Centi
M-Mili
So when ever you want to go from Mili to Deca count the number of time you have to move to get to Deca. Then move the decimal space that many time in the direction you counted. For example from mili to deca you move 4 time left, so... lets say you want to convert 1 milimeter into a decameter. You move the decimal spot from 1, four time to the left. so .0001Dkm equals 1 mm

Answer 6

One second is equal to 1000.0 milliseconds
One gram is equal to 100.0 centigrams
Just look at the prefix. milli...centi....

Answer 7

Milli is 1,000
Cent is 100

Answer 8

milli = 1000
centi = 100
deci = 10
