Question

1.) What is the mass of 275 mL of mercury knowing that the density of murcury is 13.6g/mc2.) What volume in liters will be occupied by 1.00k of Murcurythat has a density of 13.6 g/mL. 3.) You found a peace of metal. the density of the metal is 7.1g/mL. the mass is 275.7 g How much metal did you find *Show your work*

Answer 1

We can use the following formula in order to solve all the questions:

$\begin{gathered} \rho=\frac{m}{v} \\ \text{where:} \\ \rho=Density \\ m=mass \\ v=volume \end{gathered}$

2)

$\begin{gathered} v=\frac{m}{\rho} \\ m=1\operatorname{kg}=1000g \\ \rho=\frac{13.6g}{ml} \\ v=\frac{1250}{17}ml\approx73.53ml \end{gathered}$

3)

$\begin{gathered} v=\frac{m}{\rho} \\ m=275.7g \\ \rho=\frac{7.1g}{ml} \\ v=\frac{275.7}{7.1} \\ v=\frac{2757}{71}ml\approx38.83ml \end{gathered}$
