    Given:

    The density of air = 1.19 g/L at 25°C and atmospheric pressure,

    or

    density = 1.19 x 10⁻³ kg/L

    Volume of air in the room is

    V = 12.5*19.5*6.0 = 1462.5 ft³

    Note that

    1 ft³ = 28.317 L

    Therefore

    V = (1462.5 ft³) * (28.317 L/ft³) = 4.1414 x 10 ⁴ L

    By definition, mass = density*volume.

    Therefore, the mass is

    (1.19 x 10⁻³ kg/L) * (4.1414 x 10⁴ L) = 49.283 kg

    Answer: 49.3 kg (nearest tenth)
