Question

Calculate the density of benzene if 0.10L has a mass of 36.4g.

Answer 1

`d=0.364\ g/cm^3`

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of benzene, m = 0.1 L

Mass, m = 36.4 g

We know that, 1 L = 1000 cm³

0.1 L = 100 cm³

The density of an object is equal to its mass divided by its volume. So,

`\rho=(m)/(V)\\\\=(36.4\ g)/(100\ cm^3)\\\\=0.364\ g/cm^3`

So, the density of benzene is
`0.364\ g/cm^3`.
