Answer:
37.65mL
Explanation:
Given parameters:
density of liquid Z = 0.9237g/mL
Mass of liquidZ + mass of cup = 50.7g
Mass of cup= 15.92g
Volume of liquid Z in cup=?
Solution:
Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. It is mathematically expressed as shown below:
Density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]
To find the volume of liquid Z, we know the density of the liquid but we dont know the mass yet.
Mass of liquidZ = 50.7g - mass of cup = 50.7g - 15.92g = 34.98g
Therefore:
Volume of liquidZ = [tex]\frac{mass of liquidZ}{density of liquidZ}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{34.98}{0.9237}[/tex]
= 37.65mL
