A syrup is added to an empty container with a mass of 102.00g . When 0.133 pint of syrup is added, the total mass of the container and syrup is 196.34g . (1 qt = 2 pt)
And the question is ?
Sorry.. What is the density (g/mL)?
First convert pints to mL. I obtained 62.9 mL but you should confirm that.
196.34 g = mass container + syrup
-102.00 g = mass empty container
--------------
94.34 = mass syrup
density = mass/volume = ?
Thank you so much for helping with this!! Math part if chem is not my strongest :)
To solve this problem, we need to first calculate the mass of the syrup that was added to the container.
Given:
Mass of the empty container = 102.00 g
Mass of the container and syrup = 196.34 g
Volume of syrup added = 0.133 pt
To calculate the mass of the syrup, we need to find the difference between the total mass of the container and syrup and the mass of the empty container.
Mass of the syrup = Mass of container and syrup - Mass of empty container
Mass of the syrup = 196.34 g - 102.00 g
Next, we need to convert the given volume of syrup from pints to quarts since 1 quart is equal to 2 pints.
Volume of syrup in quarts = 0.133 pt / 2
Now, we can calculate the density of the syrup.
Density (ρ) = Mass of the syrup / Volume of syrup in quarts
Finally, let's substitute the values we've calculated to find the density of the syrup.
Density (ρ) = (196.34 g - 102.00 g) / (0.133 pt / 2)
Solve this equation to find the density of the syrup.
