A flask is found to have a mass of 109.80 grams. A liquid is added to a buret, and the initial measurement is found to be 0.25 mL. After liquid has been added to the flask from the buret, the buret reads 13.95 mL. The flask is weighed again, and is found to have a mass of 153.90 grams. What is the density of the liquid in g/mL?

### Density Calculation Example

A flask is found to have a mass of 109.80 grams. A liquid is added to a buret, and the initial measurement is found to be 0.25 mL. After liquid has been added to the flask from the buret, the buret reads 13.95 mL. The flask is weighed again, and is found to have a mass of 153.90 grams. What is the density of the liquid in g/mL?

#### Steps for Calculation:
1. **Initial Mass of Flask:** 109.80 grams
2. **Final Mass of Flask (with liquid):** 153.90 grams
3. **Mass of Liquid:** 153.90 grams - 109.80 grams = 44.10 grams
4. **Initial Volume in Buret:** 0.25 mL
5. **Final Volume in Buret:** 13.95 mL
6. **Volume of Liquid Dispensed:**
   \( \text{Volume of Liquid} = 13.95 \text{ mL} - 0.25 \text{ mL} = 13.70 \text{ mL} \)

#### Density Formula:
\[ \text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} \]
\[ \text{Density} = \frac{44.10 \text{ grams}}{13.70 \text{ mL}} \]

\[ \text{Density} = 3.22 \text{ g/mL} \]

### Conclusion:
The density of the liquid is **3.22 g/mL**.
