The density of sucrose, table sugar, is 1.56 g/ec. What volume (in cubic centimeters) does 19.0 g of
sucrose occupy?
cc

Answer 1

12.18 cc

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Density = 1.56 g/cc

Mass = 19 g

Volume =?

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

Density = mass / volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the volume of the sucrose as follow:

Density = 1.56 g/cc

Mass = 19 g

Volume =?

Density = mass / volume

1.56 = 19 / volume

Cross multiply

1.56 × volume = 19

Divide both side by 1.56

Volume = 19 / 1.56

Volume = 12.18 cc

Therefore, the volume occupied by the sucrose is 12.18 cc
