Question

SOLVE The density of a gas is 0.68 g/mL. What amount of space would 23.8 g of this gas occupy?

Answer 1

The answer is 35 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of a substance can be found by using the formula

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

From the question we are finding the amount of space the gas will occupy that's the volume of the gas

Making volume the subject we have

`volume = (mass)/(Density)`

From the question

mass = 23.8 g/mL

Density = 0.68 g/mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's

`volume = (23.8)/(0.68)`

We have the final answer as

35 mL
