Question

A liquid that occupies a volume of 0.820 L has a mass of 2.56 kg.

Answer 1

Answer:

The density of this liquid is 0.320 kg/L

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of the Liquid =  0.820 L

Mass of the liquid  = 2.56 kg.

To Find:

The density of the liquid in  kg/L

Solution:

Density is the mass occupied by the substance in unit volume. This density is essential determining whether the substance floats or sinks. Greek letter(rho) is used to denote density

The equation of for density is

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

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

where m is the mass

v is the volume

On substituting the given values

$\rho = \frac{0.820 }{2.56}$

$\rho = 0.320 kg/L$
