Question

How many grams of tin would occupy 15.5 L, if it has a density of 17.265 g/cm3?(hint 1L=1000cm3)

Answer 1

Question:

How many grams of tin would occupy 15.5 L, if it has a density of 17.265 g/cm³?(hint 1L=1000cm³).

Solution:

1) Convert L to cm³:

1L=1000cm³, so our volume: V=15.5*1000=1.55*10⁴ cm³

2) Use density formula: d=m/V, or m=d*V

m(Sn)= 17.265 g/cm³*1.55*10⁴ cm³=2.68*10⁵g

Answer: 2.68*10⁵g
