A glass apparatus contains 26.223 g of water when filled at 25 °C. At this temperature, water has a density of 0.99704 g/mL. What is the volume of this apparatus?
mass = volume x density
Substitute and solve for volume of the water.
the answer is 26.301 mL because 26.301 x 0.99704 = 26.223
To find the volume of the apparatus, we need to use the mass and density of water.
First, we need to convert the mass of water given in grams to milliliters by using the density of water.
Density is defined as mass per unit volume, so we can rearrange the formula to solve for volume:
Density = Mass / Volume
Rearranging the formula:
Volume = Mass / Density
Now, let's calculate the volume:
Volume = 26.223 g / 0.99704 g/mL
Dividing the mass by the density:
Volume = 26.29 mL
Therefore, the volume of the apparatus is 26.29 mL.
