Milan is measuring the density of ethanol. He weighs a bottle three times:

first, empty; then filled with water; then filled with ethanol. Here are his
results:
mass of empty bottle = 30.0g
mass of bottle filled with water = 90.0g
mass of bottle filled with ethanol = = 78.0g
i Calculate the volume of the bottle.

Density of ethanol
=0.789g/cm^3

Mass of ethanol
=78-30=48g


Density = (Mass)/(Volume)


Volume = (Mass)/(Density)


Volume = (48)/(0.789)


Volume = 68.83cm³

  • Mass of ethanol=78-30=48g
  • Density of ethanol=0.789g/cm^3


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow Density=(Mass)/(Volume)


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow Volume=(Mass)/(Density)


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow volume=(48)/(0.789)


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow Volume=68.83cm^3
