Answer:

The density of gas is 0.2 Kg / L.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

mass = 0,6 Kg

volume= 3 L

density = ?

Now we will put the values in the formula,

d= m/v

d = 0.6 Kg / 3L

d = 0.2 Kg / L

The density of gas is 0.2 Kg / L.
