Balance Balance
(a) What is the mass and volume of liquid X? [1]
(b) Determine the density of liquid X? [1]
(c) Describe an experiment you would perform to determine the density of liquid X [5]
(d) Distinguish between density and relative density [1]
2. B2.Figure B2.1 represents a thick-walled bottle used to carry out an experiment to
determine the density of air. The bottle was filled with a rubber bung and a stopper.

Figure 2.1
The following results were obtained:
1. Mass of the bottle containing air = 410𝑔
2. Mass of empty (evacuated )bottle= 409𝑔
3. Mass of bottle filled with water= 1150𝑔
a) What mass of water was needed to fill the bottle? [1]
b) What was the internal volume of the bottle? Take the density of water as 1g/cm3. [2]
c) What mass of air filled the bottle? [1]
d) What was the density of air? [2]

Expected solution
1.
(a) 𝑚 = 140𝑔 − 20𝑔 = 120𝑔 and volume is 𝑣 = 60𝑐𝑚3
𝑚
(b) 𝐷 = 𝑣
120𝑔
𝐷= 3
= 2𝑔/𝑐𝑚3
60𝑐𝑚
(c) Using the electronic beam balance, measure the mass of the empty measuring
cylinder and record as 𝑚1 . Pour the liquid X into the measuring cylinder and record
the volume of liquid X as V. using the electronic beam balance, measure the mass of
𝑚
measuring cylinder containing liquid X and record as 𝑚2 . Using the formula 𝐷 = 𝑣
find the density of liquid X
(d) Density is the mass per unit volume while relative density is the ratio of density of a
substance to the density of water
2.
(a) 𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 = 1150𝑔 − 409𝑔 = 741𝑔
𝑚
(b) 𝐷 = 𝑣
741
1=
𝑣
𝑣 = 741𝑐𝑚3
(c) Mass of air=Mass of the bottle containing air- Mass of empty (evacuated )bottle
𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑖𝑟 = 410 − 409 = 1 𝑔
𝑚 1
(d) 𝐷 = 𝑣 = 741 = 1.35 × 10−3 𝑔/𝑐𝑚3
