The density of a pure liquid at 25 degrees Celsius was calculated by determining the mass and volume of a sample of the liquid. A student measured the mass of a clean, dry 25.00 mL volumetric flask, filled the flask to its calibration mark with the liquid, and then measured the mass of the flask and liquid. The recorded measurements are shown in the table above. On the basis of this information, to how many significant figures should the density of the liquid be reported?

Answer

The density of the liquid is 0.82 g/mL.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of empty flask = 18.990 g

Mass of flask + liquid = 39.439 g

Volume of liquid = 25 mL

Density of liquid =..?

Next, we shall determine the mass of the liquid. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of empty flask = 18.990 g

Mass of flask + liquid = 39.439 g

Mass of liquid =.?

Mass of liquid = (Mass of flask + liquid) – (Mass of empty flask)

Mass of liquid = 39.439 – 18.990

Mass of liquid = 20.503 g

Finally, we shall determine the density of the liquid as follow:

Mass of liquid = 20.503 g

Volume of liquid = 25 mL

Density of liquid =..?

Density = mass / volume

Density of liquid = 20.503 / 25

Density of liquid = 0.82 g/mL
