find the density of mercury if 205mL has a mass of 2790 g; round your answer tothe nearest0.1 g/mL

Respuesta :

D = m / V

D = 2790 g / 205 mL

D = 13.60 g/mL

Answer:

                   13.6 g.mL⁻¹

Solution:

               The measurement which is employed to compare the mass of a substance to the volume which it has occupied is called as density. The greater the mass or the lesser the volume, the greater is the density on a substance and vice versa.

Data Given;

                   Density  =  ?

                   Mass  =  2790 g  

                   Volume  =  205 mL

Formula Used;

                   Density  =  Mass ÷ Volume

Putting values,

                   Density  =  2790 g ÷ 205 mL

                   Density =  13.609 g.mL⁻¹
