uestion 3 (1 point)
1. Calculate the density of a liquid that has mass of 14.0g and volume of 18.0 cm? Will this liquid float on
top of water or will it sink? (Density of water is 1.0 g/mL)

Answer 1

Answer:

density=mass/volume.

density=14/18

=0.777777777 ~ 0.8g/ml.

It will float because the it lesser than the density of water.

Answer 2

formula for density of liquid = mass ÷ vol

= 14.0 g ÷ 18.0 cm³

= 0.77778 g/cm³ ( 5sf)

= 0.778 g/cm³ ( 3sf )

18.0 cm³ is the same as 18.0 ml

Therefore, the liquid will float on water as the water is denser than the liquid.
