Question

Find the mass of one litre of mercury density of mercury is 13.6g/cc

Answer 1

Solution :

✴ Given :-

• Density of mercury(Hg) = 13.6g/cm$^3$

✴ To Find :-

• Mass of one litre of mercury

✴ Concept :-

▪ Density is defined as ratio of mass of substance to the volume of substance.

$\boxed{\sf{\pink{\large{Density=\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}}}}}$

✴ Conversation :-

• 1cm$^3$ = 1ml
• 1000ml = 1L
• 1kg = 1000g
• 1cm$^3$ = 10$^{-3}$L

✴ Calculation :-

$\implies\sf\:\dfrac{13.6\times 10^{-3}}{10^{-3}}=\dfrac{Mass}{1}\\ \\ \implies\:\boxed{\sf{\orange{\large{Mass = 13.6 \: kg}}}}$
