What is the mass of 5mL of vinegar, if the tared mass of a garduated cylinder is 15.254 grams and the total mass is 20.521 grams?
Ans. Tared mass: Tared mass means the mass of an empty vessel or container.
Here, it is the mass of “empty” graduated cylinder.
So,
Mass of empty cylinder = 15.254 g
Total mass (Tared mass + vinegar) =20.521 g
Mass of vinegar= Total mass – Tared mass
= 20.521 g – 15.254 g
= 5.267 g
Hence the mass of 5.0 mL vinegar = 5.267 g
