Calcium chloride is used as a de-icer on roads in winter. It has a density of 2.50 g/cm3
What is the volume of a 9.91 g sample of this substance?

Respuesta :

The volume of the sample is 3.96cm³

Calcium chloride is an anhydrous salt that has the ability to form moisture faster than most compounds.

Therefore, it is used as de-icer on roads in winter.

To calculate the volume of the sample of calcium chloride used, the formula for density is used.

Which is,

Density = mass / volume

But, Density = 2.50g/cm³

           mass = 9.91 g

∴     volume = mass / density ( here, volume is made the subject of formula)

                    = 9.91 / 2.50

                    = 3.96cm³

Therefore, the volume of the mass of  sample given is 3.96cm³
