Answer:
Earth's gravity is strong enough to hold onto its atmosphere and keep it from drifting into space.
A flask with a volume of 125.0 mL contains air with a density of 1.298 g/L. what is the mass of the air contained in the flask<span>The given are: </span>
<span><span>1. </span>Mass = ?</span><span><span /></span>
<span><span>2. </span>Density = 1298 g/L</span>
3. Volume = 125mL to L
a. 125 ml x 0.001l/1ml = 0.125 L
<span>Formula and derivation: </span><span><span>
1. </span>density = mass / volume</span> <span><span>
2. mass </span>= density / volume</span>
<span>Solution for the problem: </span><span><span>
1. mass = </span></span> <span> 1298 g/L / 0.125 L = 10384g
</span>
