Answer : The volume of pentane will be, [tex]1.04\times 10^2cm^3[/tex]
Explanation :
To calculate mass of a substance, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}[/tex]
We are given:
Density of penatne = [tex]0.626g/cm^3[/tex]
Mass of pentane = 65.0 g
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:
[tex]0.626g/cm^3=\frac{65.0g}{\text{Volume of pentane}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Volume of pentane}=103.83cm^3=1.04\times 10^2cm^3[/tex]
Hence, the volume of pentane will be, [tex]1.04\times 10^2cm^3[/tex]
