Question

liquid water has the density of 1000.0kg/m^3. Calculate the volume occupied by 0.250kg of liquid water.

Answer 1

Answer:

$V=2.5x10^{-4}m^3\\\\V=0.25L$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the density is defined as the degree of compactness a substance has and is mathematically defined as:

$\rho =\frac{m}{V}$

Thus, for this problem, as we know both the density and mass of water we can compute the volume as shown below:  

$V=\frac{m}{\rho}=\frac{0.250kg}{1000.0kg/m^3}\\ \\V=2.5x10^{-4}m^3\\\\V=0.25L$

Best regards.
