The density of mercury is 13.5g/mL. What is the volume of this liquid if the sample weighs 12.5 pounds?

Mama L [17]

Answer : The volume of liquid is 420 mL.

Explanation :

Density : The mass per unit volume of a substance is known as density.

Formula used:

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$

As we are given:

Density of mercury = 13.5 g/mL

Mass = 12.5 pounds

First we have to convert mass of sample from pound to gram.

Conversion used:

As, 1 pound = 453.6 g

So, 12.5 pounds = 453.6 × 12.5 g = 5670 g

Now we have to calculate the volume of liquid.

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$

Now putting all the given values in this formula, we get:

$13.5g/mL=\frac{5670g}{\text{Volume}}$

Volume = 420 mL

Therefore, the volume of liquid is 420 mL.

The temperature is -14°C the air pressure in an automobile tire is 149K PA if the volume does not change what is the pressure af

Jet001 [13]

Answer: The pressure after the tire is heated to 17.3°C is 167 kPa

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

$P_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$P_1=149kPa\\T_1=-14^0C=(273-14)=259K\\P_2=?=27.5psi\\T_2=17.3^0C=(273+17.3)=290.3K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{149}{259}=\frac{P_2}{290.3}\\\\P_2=167kPa$

Hence, the pressure after the tire is heated to 17.3°C is 167 kPa
