Question

if a bottle of olive oil contains 1.3 kg of oil what is the volume in mL of the oil?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1419.21 mL

Explanation:

From the question;

• Mass of olive oil = 1.3 kg

We are required to determine the volume of the oil in mL

• We need to know the density of Olive oil;
• Density of olive oil is 0.916 kg/liter

• But; Density = Mass÷volume
• Rearranging the formula;

Volume = Mass ÷ Density

              = 1.3 kg ÷ 0.916 kg/L

              = 1.41921 L

BuT, 1 l = 1000 mL

Therefore;

Volume = 1.41921 L × 1000 mL/L

             = 1419.21 mL

Hence, the volume of olive oil is 1419.21 L
