Answer: The density of HCl solution is 1.18 g/mL
Explanation:
We are given:
Mass of beaker = 5.333 g
Mass of HCl + beaker = 11.229 g
Mass of HCl = [11.229 - 5.333] g = 5.896 g
To calculate the density of substance, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}[/tex]
Mass of HCl = 5.896 g
Volume of HCl = 5.00 mL
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\text{Density of HCl}=\frac{5.896g}{5.00mL}\\\\\text{Density of HCl}=1.18g/mL[/tex]
Hence, the density of HCl solution is 1.18 g/mL
