The mass of a beaker is 5.333g. After 5.00 mL of a concentrated hydrochloric acid solution is pipetted into the beaker, the combined mass of the beaker and the hydrochloric acid sample is 11.229 g. From the data, what is the measured density of the hydrochloric solution?

Can you please show me a step by step way to answer this. I am still totally confused...

Amy, I'm at a loss. Both Damon and I showed you how to work this problem. Somehow you punched in the wrong numbers or punched a wrong button on the calculator. The easiest way, short of me working the problem for you (which doesn't help you) is for you to show each step you followed and your answer. I will look for the error. That way we will know what is going wrong.
