As we know,
Density of Benzene = 876 Kg/m³
And,
Density of Water = 997 Kg/m³
So,
Specific Gravity is calculated as,
Specific Gravity = Density of Benzene / Density of Water
Specific Gravity = 876 Kg/m³ / 997 Kg/m³
Specific Gravity = 0.878
Every object having specific gravity less than 1 will float on water and if value is greater than 1 then it will sink.
Benzene being non-polar in nature does not mix with water and due to less density it will float on the surface of water.
Ok but you have to give me a cookie
From ideal gas equation that is PV=nRT
n(number of moles)=PV/RT
P=760 torr
V=4.50L
R(gas constant =62.363667torr/l/mol
T=273 +273=298k
n is therefore (760torr x4.50L) /62.36367 torr/L/mol x298k =0.184moles
the molar mass of NO2 is 46 therefore density= 0.184 x 46=8.464g/l
