How much of a liquid of density 1.3g*cm^...

How much of a liquid of density `1.3g*cm^(-3)` can be stored in a container of 5 kg of kerosene oil? Density of kerosene = `0.8g*cm^(-3)`. Give your answer in kg.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Volume of kerosene oil = `5000/0.8=6250cm^(3)`
`therefore` The container can hold `6250cm^(3)` of any liquid.
`therefore` Mass of the given liquid that can be stored in the container = `6250xx1.3` = 8125 g = 8.125 kg.
