Student 1You are supplied with a 100 mL beaker that you weigh on a pocket balance - its weight clean and dry is 29.3 g. You then dispense 15.0 mL of a clear unknown liquid from a graduated cylinder into the 100 mL beaker. The beaker plus liquid now weighs 44.2 g. Calculate the density of the liquid on the sheet supplied with your data sheets.

The answer to your question is: density = 0.993 g/ml

Explanation:

Data

mass beaker empty = 29.3 g

volume of liquid = 15 ml

mass beaker + liquid = 44.2 g

Formula

density = mass / volume

Process

mass of liquid = 44.2 - 29.3

= 14.9 g

density = 14.9 / 15

= 0.993 g/ml
