a student mixed 20.0 cm3 of water with 20.0 cm3 of ethanol and found the resultant volume to be 38.7 cm3. calculate the density of the resultant mixture. (note: density of water is 1.00 g cm–3 and density of ethanol is 0.789 g cm–3.)

Respuesta :

The density of the resultant mixture is 0.925 g/cm³.

What is the mass of each component of the mixture?

The mass of each component of the mixture is calculated as follows;

m = ρV

where;

  • ρ is density
  • V is volume

mass of water = 20 cm³  x  1 g/cm³ = 20 g

mass of ethanol = 20 cm³  x 0.789 g/cm³ = 15.78 g

Total mass of the mixture = 20 g + 15.78 g = 35.78 g

The density of the mixture is calculated as follows;

Density of the mixture = total mass / total volume

Density of the mixture = (35.78 g) / (38.7 cm³) = 0.925 g/cm³
