Liquid A and liquid B are mixed to make liquid C.
Liquid A has a density of 70 kg/m Liquid A has a mass of 1400 kg
Liquid B has a density of 280 kg/m Liquid B has a volume of 30 m
Work out the density of liquid C.

Answer:

Density is defined as:

Density = mass/volume.

We know that:

For liquid A:

Density = 70kg/m^3

Mass = 1400kg

Then the volume is:

Volume = mass/density = (1400kg)/(70kg/m^3) = 20 m^3

For liquid B:

Density = 280 kg/m^3

Volume = 30m^3

We can find the mass of liquid B as:

mass = density*volume = (280kg/m^3)*(30m^3) = 8400 kg

We know that liquid C is a mixture of liquid A and B.

Then the mass of liquid C will be equal to the sum of the masses of liquid A and B, then:

Mass of liquid C = 1400kg + 8400kg = 9800kg

The same happens for the volume, then:

Volume of liquid C = 30m^3 + 20m^3 = 50m^3

Then the density of liquid C is:

Density of liquid C = (9800kg)/(50m^3) = 196 kg/m^3
