Students have asked these similar questions
If ethanol has a density of 0.789g/ml, what would the volume of the ethanol be in ml? What would the volume be in gallons (1gal = 3785ml)?
The above ethanol could be converted to Vodka by diluting to 50% ethanol (adding enough water to double the volume). What would the volume of the resulting Vodka be in ml? If the volume of a “shot” of Vodka is 30ml, how many shots of vodka could be produced from a bushel of corn?
A student working in the lab is trying to identify an unknown substance to see
if it matches a substance with a density of 5.76 g/mL. The student finds that
the mass of the object is 88.73 g. If it has the correct density (5.76 g/mL), what
would be the volume of this object, in mL, when she measures it? Do not
include units in your answer.
Lithium is the least dense metal known (density=0.534 g/cm3).
What is the volume occupied by 1.60 * 103 g of lithium?
