Question

use the density formula to solve the following problems. a sample of a substance has a volume of 60.5mL and a density of 1.20mL. What is the mass of the sample?

Answer 1

Answer:

mass of substance =50.4 g

Explanation:

Using the density formula;

Density = mass of substance / volume of substance

Therefore, making mass subject of the density formula,

mass of substance = volume of substance / density of substance

volume  of substance = 60.5 mL, density = 1.20 g/mL ( since common units of density is either g/cm³ or g/mL)

mass of the substance = 60.5 mL / 1.20 g/mL

mass of substance = 50.4 g
