A flask that weighs 345.8g is filled with 225mL of carbon tetrachloride. The weight of the flask and carbon tetrachloride is found to be 703.55g. From this information, calculate the density of carbon tetrachloride.

Explanation:

The density of carbon tetrachloride can be found by using the formula

From the question

Volume = 225 mL

To find the mass of carbon tetrachloride in the flask subtract the mass of the flask from the total mass of the flask and carbon tetrachloride

That's

mass of carbon tetrachloride =

703.55 - 345.8

= 357.75 g

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the density

That's

We have the final answer as.

Density = 1.59 g/mL
