Answer:
The mass of salt water is 390 grams
Explanation:
To calculate the mass of salt water, we use the equation:
\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}Density of substance=
Volume of substance
Mass of substance
Density of salt water = 1.30g/cm^31.30g/cm
3
Volume of salt water = 300 mL = 300cm^3300cm
3
(Conversion factor: 1mL=1cm^31mL=1cm
3
)
Putting values in above equation, we get:
\begin{gathered}1.30g/cm^3=\frac{\text{Mass of salt water}}{300cm^3}\\\\\text{Mass of salt water}=(1.30g/cm^3\times 300cm^3)=390g\end{gathered}
1.30g/cm
