Question

The density of a sample of gasoline is 0.70 g/cm3. What is the mass of 1 liter of this gasoline?

Group of answer choices

0.7 g

70 g

700 g

1,429 g

Answer 1

700g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Density of gasoline = 0.7g/cm³

Volume of gasoline = 1L = 1000cm³

Unknown:

Mass of the gasoline = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. It can be expressed as;

Density =
`(mass)/(volume)`

So;

Mass = density x volume

Mass = 0.7 x 1000 = 700g
