PROBLEM
Find the mass in grams of a liquid with density to fill a 50.00 - container. Use algebraic manipulation.
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The density of the liquid is
. The volume of the container is
3. We are using the formula for density, which is mass/volume4. We are solving for mass
STEP 2
We start with the formula for density
STEP 3
We want to solve for mass, so we rearrange the formula to isolate mass on one side
STEP 4
Now, we plug in the given values for density and volume to calculate the mass
STEP 5
Calculate the massThe mass of the liquid needed to fill the container is57.5 grams.
STEP 6
For problem2.117, we will use unit analysis. Start with the volume of the container
STEP 7
Multiply the volume by the density. The units of mL will cancel out, leaving us with grams
SOLUTION
Calculate the massThe mass of the liquid needed to fill the container is57.5 grams.
