Answer:
The mass of mercury = 0.136 kg
Explanation:
Density: This is defined as the ratio of mass of a body and the volume of that body. The S.I unit of density is kg/m³. It can be represented mathematically as
D = m/v
m = D× v .......................... Equation 1
Where D = density of the mercury, m = mass of the mercury, v = volume of the mercury.
Given: D = 13600 kg/m², v = 10 cm³ = (10×1/1000000) = 0.00001 m³
Substituting these values into equation 1,
m = 13600×0.00001
m = 0.136 kg.
Therefore the mass of mercury = 0.136 kg
