Question

Chemistry student needs of 55g acetone for an experiment. by consulting the crc handbook of chemistry and physics, the student discovers that the density of acetone is . calculate the volume of acetone the student should pour out. round your answer to significant digits.

Answer 1

Answer:

             70.15 cm³

Solution:

Data Given;

                  Mass  =  55 g

                  Density  =  0.784 g.cm⁻³

Required:

                  Volume  =  ?

Formula Used:

                  Density  =  Mass ÷ Volume

Solving for Volume,

                  Volume  =  Mass ÷ Density

Putting values,

                  Volume  =  55 g ÷ 0.784 g.cm⁻³

                  Volume = 70.15 cm³
