Question

What is the density of a substance (g/mL) where 1.524 gallons has a mass of 3,467.0 grams?

1 gallon = 3785.5 mL

Answer 1

The density of the substance is 0.601 g/mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance can be calculated by dividing the mass of the substance by its volume. In this case, we are given that 1.524 gallons of the substance has a mass of 3,467.0 grams. To find the density in g/mL, we need to convert the given mass and volume to the appropriate units.

First, we convert 1.524 gallons to milliliters (1 gallon = 3785.5 mL):

1.524 gallons * 3785.5 mL/gallon = 5767.122 g

Next, we divide the mass by the volume to find the density:

Density = mass/volume = 3,467.0 g / 5767.122 mL = 0.601 g/mL
