Q.2.107 - An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry

Question

How many millilitres of gasoline has a mass of 1.2 kg (see Table 2.8)? (2.7)

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

$1621.62$ml 

Step 1: introduction

Density is the estimation of how firmly or freely a given substance is pressed into a given volume. Air, for instance, is a low thickness, much lower than human tissue, which is the reason we can go through it

Step 2: explanation

Given,

mass of gasoline is $1.2kg=1.2\times 1000=1200g$

Density is $=0.74\mathrm{g}/\mathrm{mL}$

using formula,

$\text{ Volume }=\frac{\text{ Mass }}{\text{ Density }}$

$\text{ Volume }=\frac{1200}{0.74}=1621.62\mathrm{mL}$
