You are a team leader at a pharmaceutical company. Several technicians are preparing samples, and you want to compare the densities of the samples (density = mass/volume) by using the mass and volume values they have reported. Unfortunately, you did not specify what units to use. The technicians used a variety of units in reporting their values, as shown in the following table. Sample ID Mass Volume A 8.00 g 1.67 × 10–6 m³ 9.38 x 106um³ 6.00µg 8.00mg 9.00 × 10-4 kg 2.81 × 10³ mm³ 9.00 x 104ng 6.00 x 10-2mg 1.25 × 10 µm³ В C 2.50 x 10¬3 cm³ 3 E 1.41 x 10-2 mm3 3 F List the sample IDs in order of increasing density of the sample.
