1. which of the following is an acceptable unit to measure the volume of a substance?

a. kg
b. g
c. g/ml
d. cm³
mark for review (will be highlighted on the review page)

Explanation:

To determine the acceptable unit for measuring the volume of a substance, we analyze each option:

• Option A (kg) and Option B (g) are units of mass, not volume.
• Option C (g/mL) is a unit of density (mass per unit volume), not volume itself.
• Option D ($\text{cm}^3$) is a unit of volume (since volume of a cube with side length in cm is calculated as side length cubed, and it's used to measure the space occupied by a substance).

Answer:

D. $\text{cm}^3$
