Question

A scientist measures 1062 mL of a substance with a density of 0.023 g/mL. What is the

mass of the substance?

Answer 1

Mass of the substance is 24.426 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the density is
`0.023g/mL`

The volume of substance is
`1062 mL`.

density of a substance is the mass of the substance per unit volume.

density=
`\frac {mass}{volume}`

In this question the mass of the substance is
`0.023g/mL`

Therefore the mass of the substance in
`1062 mL` of the substance is given by

mass =
`volume * density`

mass =
`1062 * 0.023=24.426 g`
