<span>A SI base unit is the single and direct measurement unit for a physical entity. E.g. For mass it is kg, for time it is sec, A derived unit is determined by a physical equation with the base units, like for velocity equals distance divided by time, in SI units: unit of v (velocity)= m (meter) divided by sec (seconds).

Hope this helps!</span>

If you have a density of 100 kg/L and a mass of 1000 g what is the volume (please explain)
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:  Volume =  0.01L

Explanation:

The density of a substance is given by; Density =  Mass / Volume.

In this question, Mass = 1000g, Volume = ? and Density = 100 Kg/L

For the units to be uniform, we convert 1000g to Kg = 1Kg

Therefore, Volume = Mass / Density =  1Kg / 100Kg/L = 0.01L

Calculate the volume of a 0.5M solution containing 20g of NaOH
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

1L

Explanation:

First, let us calculate the number of mole present in 20g of NaOH. This is illustrated below:

Mass = 20g

Molar Mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

Number of mole =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of NaOH = 20/40 = 0.5mol

From the question given, we obtained the following data:

Molarity = 0.5M

Mole = 0.5mole

Volume =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Volume = mole /Molarity

Volume = 0.5/0.5

Volume = 1L
