What liquid is poured into a container with a volume of 125 liters if its mass is 88 kg 750 g?

Initial data: V (volume occupied by an unknown liquid) = 125 l; m (mass of unknown liquid) = 88 kg 750 g = 88.75 kg.

SI system: V = 125 L = 125 dm ^ 3 = 0.125 m ^ 3.

The density of the unknown liquid is calculated by the formula: ρ = m / V.

Let’s make a calculation: ρ = 88.75 / 0.125 = 710 kg / m ^ 3.

According to the table of density of liquids, it can be determined that gasoline or ether has been poured into the container.

Answer: The container contains either ether or gasoline (ρ = 710 kg / m ^ 3).
