    33.3 kg of air

    Explanation:

    This is a problem of conversion unit.

    Density is mass / volume

    Therefore we have to calculate the volume in the room, to be multiply by density. That answer will be the mass of air.

    Volume of the room → 9 ft. 11 ft. 10 ft = 990 ft³

    Density is in g/L, therefore we have to convert the ft³ to dm³ (1 dm³ = 1L)

    990 ft³. 28.3 dm³ / 1ft³ = 28017 dm³ → 28017 L

    This is the volume of the room, if we replace it in the density formula we can know the mass of air in g.

    1.19 g/L = Mass of air / 28017 L

    Mass of air = 28017 L. 1.19 g/L → 33340 g of air

    Finally, let's convert the mass in g to kg → 33340 g. 1kg / 1000 g = 33.3 kg
