Question

Find the mass of 3.8 mL mercury in a thermometer. The density of Hg is 13.5 g/cm^3

Answer 1

Answer:

51g Hg

Explanation:

To find the mass of a substance using the density and the volume we must multiply the density by the volume. Also 1cm³ = 1mL.

13.5g/cm³ × 3.8cm³ = 51g (51.3g without significant figures)
