Answer:
a) Volume of vial= 9.626cm3
b) Mass of vial with water = 62.92 g
Explanation:
a) Mass of empty vial = 55.32 g
Mass of Vial + Hg = 185.56 g
Therefore,

Density of Hg = 13.53 g/cm3

b) Volume of water = volume of vial = 9.626 cm3
Density of water = 0.997 g/cm3

1,000 mL is the same as 10 dL.
Answer: It is important for an equation to be balanced because if it is not then the reactants won't match the products.
Explanation: I don't know if you will understand this but here:
Let's say you're cooking eggs, you're reactants so to speak would be 3 eggs and 1 tablespoon of oil so you put it together using heat and a pan. Your products have to match what you have in the beginning. You cannot have an equation that looks like this
Reactants = 3eggs + 1Tbsp oil ---pan/heat---> 6eggs + 1 cup of oil
You cannot get something from what you don't have. The number of how much of an element you have must be the same of both sides of the equation.
The two oxygen atoms share two pairs of electrons, so two covalent bonds hold the oxygen molecule together
