Question

An empty beaker weighs 33.87 g.

When completely filled with water, the beaker and its contents have a total mass of 283.35 g.
What volume does the beaker hold? Use =1.00 g/mL
as the density of water.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the weight of the beaker from the total....this is the mass of water held by it

283.35 g - 33.87 g = 249.48 g

now 249.48 g / ( 1.00 g/ml) = ~ 249 ml using three significant digits
