Question

A 15.0 g-sample of a liquid has a density of 0.875 g/ml. what is the volume, in milliliters, of the liquid?

Answer 1

Answer:

Volume of the sample of a liquid is, $V=17.14\ ml$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the sample of liquid, m = 15 grams

Density of the sample of liquid, $d=0.875\ g/ml$

Let V is the volume of the sample of liquid. We know that the mass per unit volume of any material is called its density. The mathematical relation is given by :

$d=\dfrac{m}{V}$

$V=\dfrac{m}{d}$

$V=\dfrac{15\ g}{0.875\ g/ml}$

$V=17.14\ ml$

So, the volume of the sample of a liquid is $17.14\ ml$. Hence, this is the required solution.
