Given that the density of Hg(l) at 0°C is about 14 g mL-­1, which of the following is closest to the volume of one mole of Hg(l) at this temperature?

14mL

Explanation:

From the question, we've been told that the that the density of Hg(l) at 0°C is about 14 g mL-­1.

14g = 1mL

We should note that atomic weight of mercury = 200.59.

Therefore, 1 mol Hg = 200.59 g

Therefore, the answer that is closest to the volume of one mole of Hg(l) at this temperature will be:

= 200.59/14

= 14.3 mL

= 14mL approximately
