The density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL. What is the volume of a 155-gram sample of mercury?

Sagot :

You need to use the density formula.

[tex] D = \frac{m}{V} [/tex] 

[tex] DV = m [/tex]

[tex] V = \frac{m}{D} [/tex]

[tex] V = \frac{155gHg}{13.6\frac{g}{mL}Hg} [/tex]

[tex] V = 11.397mL [/tex] 

volume = mass/density

  • Mass= 155 grams
  • Density = 13.6 g/ml
  • Volume = 155 grams/13.6g/ml = 11.3970588
