- Mercury metal is poured into a graduated cylinder that holds exactly 22.5 mL. The mercury used to fill the cylinder weighs 306.0 g. From this information, calculate the density of mercury.
I know that you how to do M/V. I just don’t know what to divide. Can someone help me?
Solution
Density is measured in grams per cubic centimeter (1 ml) => density = 306 / 22.5 = 13.6
