A 2.60 kg steel gas can holds 15.0 L of gasoline when full. What is the average density of the full gas can, taking into account the volume occupied by steel as well as by gasoline?

2 answers

Let ds be the density of steel in kg/liter. Let df be the average density of gasoline. You will need to look it up.

Avg density = [2.6 + 15/df]/[2.6/ds + 15]
