PROBLEM

Find the mass in grams of a liquid with density 1.15 g/mL1.15 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL} to fill a 50.00 - mL\mathrm{mL} container. Use algebraic manipulation.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The density of the liquid is 1.15g/mL1.15 \, \mathrm{g/mL}
. The volume of the container is 50.00m50.00 \, \mathrm{m}
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 densityDensity=MassVolumeDensity = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

STEP 3

We want to solve for mass, so we rearrange the formula to isolate mass on one sideMass=Density×VolumeMass = Density \times Volume

STEP 4

Now, we plug in the given values for density and volume to calculate the massMass=1.15g/mL×50.00mMass =1.15 \, \mathrm{g/mL} \times50.00 \, \mathrm{m}

STEP 5

Calculate the massMass=1.15g/mL×50.00m=57.5gMass =1.15 \, \mathrm{g/mL} \times50.00 \, \mathrm{m} =57.5 \, \mathrm{g}The 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 container50.00m50.00 \, \mathrm{m}

STEP 7

Multiply the volume by the density. The units of mL will cancel out, leaving us with grams50.00m×1.15g/mL50.00 \, \mathrm{m} \times1.15 \, \mathrm{g/mL}

SOLUTION

Calculate the mass50.00m×1.15g/mL=57.5g50.00 \, \mathrm{m} \times1.15 \, \mathrm{g/mL} =57.5 \, \mathrm{g}The mass of the liquid needed to fill the container is57.5 grams.
