Calculate the density in g/ml of 2.0 L of gasoline that weighs 1.32 kg

Sagot :

Answer: 0.66 g/mL

Explanation: The formula for density is d= m/v where m=mass and v=volume.

The mass was given in the problem, m= 1.32kg

The volume was also given in the problem, v= 2.0L

d= m/v ---> d= 1.32kg/2.0L ---> d=0.66kg/L

The problem calls for the answer to be written in g/mL, so we must convert the units. 1 kg contains 1000g and 1 L contains 1000 mL.

1000g/1000mL = 1 so the units change but the 0.66 does not. Therefore, your answer is 0.66g/mL (Two significant figures because 2.0 only has 2 significant figures).
