Question

Calculation of density of acetone in kg/m3 Estimate the density of a mixture of 50% acetone and 50% water by volume additivity

Answer 1

Response:

Density acetone-water (50%-50%)= 890.5 kg/m³

Calculation:

-density of acetone = 784 kg/m³

-density of water = 997 kg/m³

Density acetone-water (50%-50%)= (0.5 x 784 kg + 0.5x 997kg)/1m³= 890.5 kg/m³
