Answer 2

It's just like if you were to use a measuring spoon to give a child medicine. .5 is the same as half. And .25 is a fourth. We know half is more than a fourth, right? So, since .38 is between .25 and .5, then it is less than .5. If it confuses you because .38 has more numbers, then add a zero to the .5. It is still a half, and then you can look at the numbers and know right away that .50 is more than .38. Also, there are 16.9 ounces in .5L. (Because there are 33.8 ounces in a liter, so divide it by 2-or multiply by .5-to get what half a liter is.) To find .38 liters, you take what a full liter is (33.8 ounces) and multiply by how much of it you want, in this case, .38. So, 33.8 times .38 is 12.844. And that's your final answer.

Answer 3

.5L is more than .38L. I'm a nurse and I work with metric all the time. 1 litter is 1000 millilitters (ml), therefore .5L is 500 ml, and .38L is 380 ml. If the beginning number after a decimal point is higher then that number is higher. Ex. .9 is greater than .89. think of .9 as .90 if that will help. Hope this helps.

For the second part. There are 30 ml in an ounce, so divide 500 ml by 30 to get your answer and 380 ml by 30 to get your second answers, in ounces.

Answer 4

May be somebody confused that .5 L is smaller than .38 L.

As you know .5 L can also be written as 0.5 L or 0.50 L or 0.500 L. In the same manner, .38 L can be written 0.38 L or 0.380 L.

This is to be read as decimal, in the same manner as for units, tens, hundreds or thousands.

Example:

1 is the same as 1.0 or 1.00 or 1.000
10 is the same as 10.0 or 10.00 or 10.000

The decimal point explains the value.
I met some people before thinking that .25 is greater than .5 just because .5 has not been added with zero to look like .50.

1 Liter = 33.81 Us oz.
0.5 Liter = 16.91 US oz.
0.38 Liter = 12.85 US oz.

Answer 5

0.5 L is larger.

With 1 L = 33.8140226 ounces

0.5 L = 16.9070113 ounces
0.38 L = 12.849328588 ounces

Answer 6

1000 cm³ = 1000ml = 1 litre
0.5 litres = 500 ml
0.38 litre = 380 ml
0 .5 litres is more than 0.38 litres

Also in U.S.A it would appear that 1 ounce = 29.6 ml and therefore:-
500ml = 500 / 29.6 ounces = 16.9 ounces
380 ml = 380 / 29.6 ounces = 12.8 ounces

PS: It might be a good idea for U.S.A to go metric!

Answer 7

.5 is more.

.5 is actually .50 which is more than .38

Answer 8

we've the conc in share that's 38% meaning 38 in a hundred molarity = mole /L no of mols = mass /molar mass mass = 38 gm in 100ml in 1L would be 380gm in 1L ....( 1L =1000ml) molar mass of HCl = 36.4611 g/ mol her we pick the density & many times the density = a million.18g/ml Molarity =one thousand* 0.38*a million.18/36.40 six =12.406 M If the molarity is 12.39 to dilute it to 1M u pick this eq M1V1=M2V2 12.39 * V1 = 1M*1L V1 = 0.0807L = eighty.71ml from the two.5 L (12.39 M)

Answer 9

1 liter = 33.8140226 ounces


and yes, 0.5 is more than .38

if you needed to see em in just 2 sig figs, round up for the .38

and u compare 0.5 to 0.4

Answer 10

.5L >.38L. i.e. .5L is more than .38L
1Liter =33.81 Ounces or 33.5 Ounces ( approximately)
16.91 Ounces = .5 L or 16.75 Ounces = .5L
i.e. .5L = 16.91 or 16.75 ounces
Similarly, .38L = 12.85 Ounces or 12.73 Ounces.

Answer 11

and what does a stupid question deserve? a stupid answer!

.38L is bigger of course!
.5L is about 600 ounces and .38L is 2 ounces...
