Question

What is the volume of 12.8 g of a liquid that has a density of 0.789 g/mL?

Answer 1

  .789=12.8*x
.789/12.8=x
.0616=x
.0616ml

Answer 2

Answer: The volume of liquid is 16.22 mL.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio of mass of the object and volume of the object.

Mathematically,

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass of the object}}{\text{Volume of the object}}$

We are given:

Density of liquid = $0.789g/mL$

Mass of liquid = 12.8 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.789g/mL=\frac{12.8g}{\text{Volume of liquid}}\\\\\text{Volume of liquid}=16.22mL$

Hence, the volume of liquid is 16.22 mL.
