The weight of an empty bottle of 460 g, filled with water – 960 g, and filled

The weight of an empty bottle of 460 g, filled with water – 960 g, and filled with sunflower oil – 920 g. From these data, determine the density of the oil.

Let’s determine what value will be equal to the mass of water that was in the bottle:

960 – 460 = 500.

Let us determine what, in this case, the volume of the specified bottle will be equal to:

V = m: p;

pwater = 1 g / cm3;

500: 1 = 500.

Let’s determine what value will be equal to the mass of sunflower oil that was in the specified bottle:

920 – 460 = 460.

Let us determine what, in this case, the density of a given vegetable oil will be equal to:

p = m: V;

460: 500 = 0.92.

Answer: The density of this oil = 0.92 g / cm3.
