A9.35g sample of a solid was placed in a 15.00ml flask. the remaining volume was filled with benzene in which the solid is insoluble. the solid and benzene together weigh 17.33 g. the density of benzene is 0.876 g/ml. what is the density of the solid?

 1.58 g/ml

Explanation:

Given :Total mass= 17.33 g

Mas of solid = 9.35 g

Thus Mass of benzene = Total mass - Mass of solid= (17.33-9.35)g= 7.98 g  

Density of benzene = 0.876 g/ml

Therefore  Volume of benzene =

Total volume = 15 ml

Volume of solid = Total volume - Volume of benzene= (15-9.1)=5.9ml

Thus Density of solid=
