Question

15. The container shown in the figure is filled with a liquid that weighs 50 g. Find its density.

Answer 1

Answer:

  C.  0.006 g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

As the units tell you, density is the ratio of mass to volume. The volume of the container is found from ...

  V = πr²h = π(10 cm)²(25 cm) = 2500π cm³

Then the density is ...

  ρ = (50 g)/(2500π cm³) = 1/(50π) g/cm³

  ρ ≈ 0.006 g/cm³

_____

Comment on the problem

The "liquid" has about the same density as air pressurized to 75 psi.
