The ether has a volume of
Explanation:
In order to determine the density, we have to use the following formula:
- D represents density and it will have units of
#g/(mL)# when talking about a liquid or units of#g/(cm^3)# when talking about a solid. - M represents mass and will have units of grams
#g# . - V represents volume and it will have units of
#mL# or#cm^(3)#
We know the mass and density, both of which have good units so all we have to do is rearrange the equation to solve for V.
