Answer:

1. 10.5 Kg

2. s/g

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Determination of the mass of gasoline

Density of gasoline = 0.7 Kg/L

Volume of gasoline = 15 L

Mass of gasoline =?

The density of a substance is simply defined as the mass of the substance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, the density of a substance can be expressed as:

Density = mass / volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the mass of the gasoline as follow:

Density of gasoline = 0.7 Kg/L

Volume of gasoline = 15 L

Mass of gasoline =?

Density = mass / volume

0.7 = Mass of gasoline / 15

Cross multiply

Mass of gasoline = 0.7 × 15

Mass of gasoline = 10.5 Kg

2. Density has various units some are listed below:

I. Kilogram per litre (Kg/L)

II. Kilogram per cubic metre (Kg/m³)

III. Milligram per millilitre (mg/mL)

IV. Gram per millilitre (g/mL)

V. Gram per cubic centimetre (g/cm³)

Considering the options given in the question above, it is evident that second per gram (s/g) is not a unit of density because density is mass per unit volume.
