What is the mass of gasoline (p=0.680g/cmto the 3rd) in a 94.6cmto the third gasoline tank

Answer 1

Hi Paige!

We can solve for the mass of the gasoline by working with the density formula:

p=m/v
where, p = Density, m = mass, and v = volume.

If we do a little bit of rearranging by multiplying both sides of the equation by v

(v)*p=(m/v)*(v)

We get:

v*p=m

 

So, mass is equal to the density (0.680g/cm³) times the volume (94.6cm³)
