Answer to Question #300313 in Organic Chemistry for kath

Question

Density of a Solid by Water Displacement

a. Mass of the sample, g

b. Volume of water in the cylinder, mL

c. Volume of water + sample, mL

d. Volume of sample(c-b), mL

e. Density of the solid sample, g/mL

Calculate the density of the solid sample. Show your solution.

Answer 1

Given values: a. Mass of the sample, g

b. Volume of water in the cylinder, mL

c. Volume of water + sample, mL

d. Volume of sample(c-b), mL

e. Density of the solid sample, g/mL

The density of the solid sample will be

===> mass of the sample/ volume of sample, Equal to g/ml ( g/ml) units
