A liquid in the lab has a density of 1.25 g/cm^3. What is the mass, in grams, of 80.0 mL of the liquid?
A
100 g
B
100 g
C
125 g
D
80 g
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the given information: the density of the liquid is 1.25 g/cm\^3 and the volume of the liquid is 80.0 mL.
Recall that 1 mL is equivalent to 1 cm\^3, so the volume can be directly used as 80.0 cm\^3 for calculation purposes.
Use the formula relating mass, density, and volume: \(\text{mass} = \text{density} \times \text{volume}\).
Substitute the known values into the formula: \(\text{mass} = 1.25 \text{ g/cm}^3 \times 80.0 \text{ cm}^3\).
Calculate the product to find the mass in grams (do not provide the final numerical answer here, just the method).
