Answer:
345.44 g or 0.34544 kg
Explanation:
Applying
D = m/V...................... Equation 1
Where D = Density of mercury, m = mass of mercury, V = Volume of mercury.
make m the subject of the equation
m = D×V................. Equation 2
From the question,
Given: D = 13.6 g/mL = 13.6 g/cm³, V = 25.4 cm³
Substitute these values into equation 2
m = 13.6×25.4
m = 345.44 g
m = 0.34544 kg
Hence the mass of mercury is 345.44 g or 0.34544 kg
