The density of whole blood is 1.05 g/mL. A typical adult has between 4.7 and 5.5 L of whole blood. What is the mass in pounds of 5.0 L of whole blood? The density of water at 3.98°C is 1.00000 g/mL. What is the mass in pounds of 16.573 L of water? While you are at rest, your brain gets about 15% by volume of your blood. If your body contains 4.9 L of blood, how many liters of blood are in your brain at rest? How many quarts? While you are doing heavy work, your heart pumps up to 25.0 L of blood per minute. What volume of blood in quarts is pumped through your muscles in 117 minutes of work that causes your heart to pump 21.8 L per minute, 79.25% by volume of which goes to your muscles?
