Zanzabum

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>155 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

volume of bromine = 50 mL

density = 3.10 g/cm³

It's mass is

mass = 50 × 3.10

We have the final answer as

<h3>155 g</h3>
