Question

What is the volume in mL of 55 g of a liquid with density 1100 kg/m³?

Short answer

Volume of the liquid is V = 50 ml.

Step-by-step solution

Given information

Mass= 55 gm = 0.055kg
density =1100 kg/m³

Explanation

Use the formula
Density = Mass / Volume

ρ = M / V

V = M / ρ

Substitute the given value to get Volume of the liquid,

$V=\frac{M}{\rho }=\frac{0.055kg}{1100kg/m^3}=5\times {10}^{-5}{m}^3$

Convert into ml

5 x 10^-5m³ x 10⁶ ml/1 m³ = 50 ml.

Volume is 50 ml.
