Answer:

mass=?,volume=20,density=2.5.

density=mass/volume.

which will be 2.5=mass/20

which is mass=2.5×20=50kg

Answer:

mass = 50 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of a substance can be found by using the formula


Density(\rho) = (mass)/(volume)

From the question

Density = 2.5 g/mL

volume = 20 mL

To find the mass substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the mass

That's

Making mass the subject we have

mass = Density × volume

mass = 2.5 × 20

We have the final answer as

mass = 50 g

Hope this helps you
