Question

Chloroform has a density of 1.483g/ml. A sample of chloroform has a volume of 1.93 liters. How many kilograms does it weight? ​

Answer 1

Weight of Chloroform : = 2.862 kg

Further explanation

Given

Density 1.483 g/ml

Volume = 1.93 L

Required

Weight of Chloroform

Solution

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume  

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume  

Density formula:  

$\large {\boxed {\bold {\rho ~ = ~ \frac {m} {V}}}}$

ρ = density  

m = mass  

v = volume  

Convert density to kg/L :

=1.483g/ml = 1.483 kg/L

So the weight(mass) :

= ρ x V

= 1.483 kg/L x 1.93 L

= 2.862 kg
