Mercury metal is poured into a graduated cylinder that holds exactly 22.5 ml. the mercury used to fill the cylinder weighs 306.0 g. from this information, calculate the density of mercury.

The density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL

Explanation:

To calculate the density of a substance, we use the equation:

We are given:

Mass of mercury = 306.0 g

Volume of mercury = 22.5 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.
