As an instructor is preparing for an experiment, he requires 168 g glycerin. The only container readily available is a 150 mL Erlenmeyer flask. Is it large enough to contain the glycerin, whose density is 1.26 g/mL

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

m = Mass of glycerin = 168 g

Volume of glycerin that can fit in the container = 150 mL

[tex]\rho[/tex] = Density of glycerin = 1.26 g/mL

Volume the given mass of glycerin will occupy is

[tex]V=\dfrac{m}{\rho}\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{168}{1.26}\\\Rightarrow V=133.33\ \text{mL}[/tex]

A mass of 168 g of glycerin will have a volume of 133.33 mL which is less than the 150 mL flask. So, yes the flask is large enough to fit 168 g of glycerin.
