3 a graduated cylinder contains 22.5 ml of mercury weighing 306.0 g. calculate the density of mercury. a 10.5 g/ml b 13.6 g/ml c 11.5 g/ml d 13.5 g/ml
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall density formula
Density $\rho=\frac{m}{V}$, where $m$ is mass and $V$ is volume.
Step2: Identify values
Given $m = 306.0\ g$ and $V=22.5\ mL$.
Step3: Calculate density
$\rho=\frac{306.0}{22.5}=13.6\ g/mL$
Answer:
B. 13.6 g/mL
