Question

The density of a sample of gasoline is 0.70 g/cm3. What is the mass of 1 liter of this gasoline?

Answer 1

Answer:

700g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Density of gasoline  = 0.7g/cm³

Volume of gasoline  = 1L  = 1000cm³  

Unknown:

Mass of the gasoline  = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. It can be expressed as;

 Density  = $\frac{mass}{volume}$  

 So;

      Mass  = density x volume

    Mass  = 0.7 x 1000  = 700g
