Hello!
Given the density of mercury being 13.57 g/mL, and the mass of 52 kilograms, we need to find the volume.
To find the volume, we need to divide mass by density (V = m/d).
Notice that you are given 52 kilograms, but not grams. To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply it by 1000.
52 x 1000 = 52000 grams
With the correct measurements, we can find the volume.
V = 52000 grams / 13.56 grams/milliliter
V ≈ 3834.80826
Therefore, the volume of the mercury is about 3,834.81 mL.
