A chemistry student needs 45.0mL of pentane for an experiment. By consulting the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, the student discovers that the density of pentane is ·0.626gcm−3. Calculate the mass of pentane the student should weigh out. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Respuesta :

The mass of pentane the student should weigh out is

The density of pentane is 0.626 gcm-3

To calculate the mass of pentane following expression is used,

(Density is defined as the mass divide by volume)

Density = mass / volume

mass of pentane = Density of pentane * Volume of pentane

mass of pentane = 0.626 gcm-3 * 45.0 mL

                             = 28.17 g

Here the unit of mass of pentane is g,

However the unit of density is gcm-3 and unit of volume is mL i.e. cm3

Hence,   Mass = gcm-3 * cm3

              Mass = g

The mass of pentane the student should weigh out is 28.17g
