What is the density of a substance with a mass of 45.00g and a volume of 26.4 mL

1 answer

To find density, you need to divide the mass of the substance by its volume.

Density = Mass / Volume

Given:
Mass = 45.00g
Volume = 26.4 mL

First, we need to convert the volume from milliliters (mL) to cubic centimeters (cm³) because the units for density are typically expressed in g/cm³.

1 mL = 1 cm³

So, the volume is already in cubic centimeters.

Density = 45.00g / 26.4 cm³

Density ≈ 1.704 g/cm³
