Question

What is the volume of 55.0 g of toluene if the density of toluene is 0.87 g/mL?
a. 6.3 x 10^1 mL
b. 5.5 x 10^1 mL
c. 1.6 x 10^-2 mL
d. 4.8 x 10^1 mL

Answer 1

Given :

Mass of toluene: 55.0 g                                                                    

Density of toluene: 0.87 g/mL

Now we know Volume = mass/density

Substituting these values we get

Volume = 55.0 g÷0.87 g/mL                                                          

Volume = 63.22 mL
