Respuesta :
To determine the mass of a substance given the volume, we can use the density by multiplying it to the volume. We calculate as follows:
Mass = 2.0 oz ( 30 cm^3 / 1 oz ) ( 13.6 g / cm^3)
Mass = 816 g of mercury

Answer : The mass of mercury required is, 816 grams.
Solution : Given,
Density of mercury = [tex]13.6g/cm^3[/tex]
Volume of mercury = [tex]2ounce=2\times 30=60cm^3[/tex]
conversion :
[tex](1ounce=30cm^3)[/tex]
Formula used :
[tex]Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the mass of mercury.
[tex]13.6g/cm^3=\frac{Mass}{60cm^3}[/tex]
[tex]Mass=816g[/tex]
Therefore, the mass of mercury required is, 816 grams.
