Question

A sample of an unknown liquid has a volume of 12.0 mL and a mass of 6 g. What is its density? Show your work or explain how you determined this value.

Answer 1

Answer: The density of the liquid will be 0.5 g/ml.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

`Density=(mass)/(Volume)`

Given : Mass of liquid = 6 grams

Volume of liquid = 12 ml

Putting in the values we get:

`Density=(6g)/(12ml)=0.5g/ml`

Thus density of the unknown liquid will be 0.5 g/ml.
