Question 167052: The mass of an empty container is 62 g. The
mass of the container filled with water is 87 g.
What is the volume of the container? The
density of water is 1 g/cm^3. Answer in units
of cm^3. Answer by nerdybill(7384) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! "weight of contents" = "filled weight" - "empty weight"
.
"weight of contents" = 87 - 62
"weight of contents" = 25 g
.
To find the volume:
25 grams * (1 cm^3)/(1 gram)
Notice: the "grams" cancel leaving
25 cm^3 (volume of container)
