What is the density of the corn oil if its volume is 114 cm3?

Answer 1

What is that sample's mass? In order to calculate density, you need volume (which you have given) but you also need mass. The formula for calculating density is D=M/V where M is mass and V is volume.

Answer 2

The question is defective in a number of respects.

-- we can't calculate density with only volume; we need mass too.

-- on the other hand, the density doesn't depend on volume; for any substance,

the density of a drop of it is the same as the density of a tankerful of it.

Answer 3

m = 215.6g - 110.4g = 105.2g
V = 114cm3 = 114ml
ρ = m/V
∴ ρ = 105.2/114 g/ml
∴ ρ = 1052/1440 g/ml
∴ ρ ≈ 0.7306 g/ml

Answer 4

Density = Mass / Volume

So you need to provide us with it's mass too.

Answer 5

To calculate the density of the corn oil, you would need both the volume AND the mass. Then divide the mass (?) by the volume (115.0cm3) to get the density.

Answer 6

mass of the corn oil = 215.6 - 110.4 = 105.2 g

density of the corn oil = 105.2 / 114 = 0.9228 g/ml

hope that helps :)
