Question

3. Mercury is a liquid metal that has a density of 13.58 g/mL. Calculate the volume of mercury

that must be poured out in order to obtain 0.5000 g of Mercury (2)

Answer 1

0.03682 mL of mercury

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the density of the mercury which is 13.58 g/mL

density = mass / volume

volume = mass / density

Now we can calculate the volume of 0.5 g of mercury:

volume = 0.5 / 13.58 = 0.03682 mL of mercury
