Question

5. The density of a substance is 3.4 X 10^3 g/mL. Mixing it with another substance increases the density by 1.5 X 10^1 times. What is the density of the mixture?​

Answer 1

Answer:

the total density of the mixture = 3.415 x 10^3 g/mL

Explanation:

i got that correct on exam

Answer 2

Answer:

the total density of the mixture = 3.415 x 10^3 g/mL

Explanation:

given:

density of a substance is 3.4 x 10^3 g/mL

Mixing it with another substance increases the density by 1.5 x 10^1 times.

find:

What is the density of the mixture?​

-------------------------------------------------

let density (a) = 3.4 x 10^3 g/mL

density(b) = 1.5 x 10^1 g/mL

since there is no specific density provided for the mixture, we then add both to increase the density,

total density = density(a) + density(b)

total density = 3.4 x 10^3 g/mL + 1.5 x 10^1 g/mL

total density = 3.415 x 10^3 g/mL

therefore,

the total density of the mixture = 3.415 x 10^3 g/mL
