Mercury is commonly supplied in flasks containing 34.5 kg (about 76 lb). What is the volume in liters of this much mercury?

2.538 liters of mercury inside each flask

Explanation:

Let the mercury density be 13593 kg per cubic meters. The volume of the mercury contained in flasks that weight 34.5 kg each would be its mass divided by the density

V = 34.5 / 13593 = 0.002538 cubic meter or 2.538 liters
