If you know the density of Mercury, you can determine the mass of a specific volume of mercury. Mercury has a density of 13.534g/cm3. 1cm3 = 1mL, so we can restate its density as 13.534g/mL.

Density = mass/volume. If we know any two variables, we can manipulate the density equation to find the third variable. In this case, we know volume and density, so to find the mass, do the following calculation:

Mass = density x volume

Mass Hg = 13.534g/mL x 136mL = 1.84g Hg*

*The answer is limited to 3 significant figures, because 136mL has only 3 significant figures, even though the density has 5 significant figures. When multiplying or dividing, the answer is limited to the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the fewest significant figures used in the calculation.

What has the greatest mass 3.48 milliliter of mercury or 60.0 milliliter of alcohol?

Density mercury ≈ 5.43 g/ml. Density alcohol (ethanol) ≈ 0.789 g/ml. mass = density x volume ⇒ mass mercury ≈ 5.43 g/ml x 3.48 ml ≈ 18.90 g ⇒ mass alcohol ≈ 0.789 g/ml x 60.0 ml ≈ 47.34 g ⇒ 60.0 ml of alcohol has more mass than 3.48 ml of mercury.


What is the density of 2.0Mel of mercury with a mass of 27.1G?

The density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL. To calculate the volume, divide the mass by the density: 27.1 g / 13.6 g/mL = 1.99 mL. Therefore, the density of 2.0 mL of mercury with a mass of 27.1 g is 13.6 g/mL.


What is the mass of 14 ml of mercury?

Density of mercury is 13.534 g/cm3 around room temperature. An ml is 1 cm3, please work out the Mathematics yourselves.


What is the mass of a 15 ml sample of mercury?

The mass of a 15 ml sample of mercury would be approximately 166.5 grams. Mercury has a density of 13.6 grams per milliliter, so by multiplying the volume (15 ml) by the density, you can calculate the mass.


The mass of 100 ml of mercury is 1350 g In this case what is the calculated density of mercury?

Density is calculated as mass divided by volume. In this case, the mass is 1350 g and the volume is 100 ml. Converting 100 ml to cubic centimeters (1 ml = 1 cm^3), the density of mercury is 13.5 g/cm^3.


What is the density of mercury if a 25.0 mL sample has a mass of 338.35 g?

(338.5 g) / (25.0 mL) = 13.5 g/mL (3 significant figures)


How many mL of Mercury are in a thermometer that contains 20.4g of Mercury?

Given:thermometer contains 20.4g of mercury density of mercury = 13.6 g/mL Density= mass/volume 13.6g/mL = (20.4g)/volume Multiply both sides by volume to get it out of the denominator: (13.6 g/mL) x Volume = 20.4g Now Divide both sides by 13.6 g/mL to isolate volume and you have your answer: volume= 20.4g/13.6 g/mL volume = 1.50 mL Hope that helps!


Calculate the density of mercury if 15.0 ML weighs 204g?

To calculate the density of mercury, we need to use the formula: Density = Mass / Volume Given that the mass of 15.0 mL of mercury is 204 g, we can convert mL to L by dividing by 1000: Volume = 15.0 mL / 1000 mL/L = 0.0150 L Now we can calculate the density: Density = Mass / Volume = 204 g / 0.0150 L = 13600 g/L Therefore, the density of mercury is 13600 g/L.
