Question

If 54.96 ml) of an oil weigh 52.78g, what is the specific gravity of the oil? 54.96 ml of water weigh 54.96g​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

V₁ = 54.96 ml = 54.96 cm³

m₁ = 52.78 g

V₂ = 54.96 ml = 54.96 cm³

m₂ = 54.96 g

___________

ρ₁ - ?

ρ₂ - ?

Oil density:

ρ₁ = m₁ / V₁ = 52.78 / 54.96 ≈ 0.96 g/cm³

Density of water:

ρ₂ = m₂ / V₂ = 54.96 / 54.96 = 1.00 g/cm³
