Question

The density of a pure substance is its mass per unit volume. The density of cresol has been measured to be 1024 g/L . Calculate the mass of 405mL of cresol.

Answer 1

Answer: The mass of 405 ml of cresol is 415 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

`Density=(mass)/(volume)`

Given : Density of cresol = 1024 g/L

Volume of cresol = 405 ml = 0.405 L ( 1L=1000ml)

Putting in the values we get:

`1024g/L=(mass)/(0.405L)`

`mass=1024g/L* 0.405L=415g`

Thus mass of 405 ml of cresol is 415 grams
