Hi there,

Thanks for letting me work on your post. I've included my explanation in the word document. If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Thanks.
Tony

Please see the attachment for word format and full equations.

1. Calculate the volume of 235.1 g of mercury (D=13.5g/cm3). Round to one decimal place, do not include units in your answer.
volume=mass/density, in this problem, mass=235.1g, density=13.5g/cm^3.
Based on these information, volume=235.1/13.5=17.4

2. The empty cylinder has a mass of 45.8 g. A liquid is added and the mass of the liquid and the cylinder is 107.2. What is the density of the liquid in the cylinder? Round to one decimal place; do not include units in your answer.
in this question, mass of liquid: 107.2-45.8=61.4
However, information about the volume of cylinder is needed before we could calculate the volume.

3. A little aluminum boat (mass of 10.8 g) has a ...
