If a 250mL beaker weighs 13.473g and the same beaker plus 2.2 mL of water weighs 15.346g. How much does the 2.2 mL of water, alone, weigh? Show your work for the calculation. Be sure to use significant figures.

Respuesta :

Given :

A 250 ml beaker weighs 13.473 g .

The same beaker plus 2.2 ml of water weighs 15.346 g.

To Find :

How much does the 2.2 ml of water, alone, weigh .

Solution :

Now, mass of water is given by :

[tex]\text{Mass of water alone = Total mass - Mass of beaker alone}\\\\Mass =15.346-13.473\ g\\\\Mass =1.873\ g[/tex]

Therefore , mass of 2.2 ml of water alone is 1.873 g .

Hence , this is the required solution .
