Question

1. what is the mass, in grams, of a sample of cough syrup that has a volume of 50.0 cm³? the density of cough syrup is 0.950 g/cm³.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall density formula

The density formula is $
ho=\frac{m}{V}$, where $
ho$ is density, $m$ is mass and $V$ is volume. We need to solve for $m$. Rearranging the formula gives $m =
ho\times V$.

Step2: Substitute values

We know that $
ho = 0.950\ g/cm^{3}$ and $V=50.0\ cm^{3}$. Substituting these values into the formula $m=
ho\times V$, we get $m=(0.950\ g/cm^{3})\times(50.0\ cm^{3})$.

Step3: Calculate mass

$m = 0.950\times50.0\ g=47.5\ g$.

Answer:

$47.5$ g
