A32.50-g sample of a solid is placed in a flask. toluene, in which the solid is insoluble, is added to the flask so that the total volume of solid and liquid together is 55.00 ml . the solid and toluene together weigh 58.68 g . the density of toluene at the temperature of the experiment is 0.864 g/ml. what is the density of the solid?

The density of the solid is 1,316 g/mL

Explanation:

The weight of both Toluene and the solid insoluble is 58,68 g. And the weight of the solid is 32,50 g. Thus, weight of toluene is:

58,68 g - 32,50 g = 26,18 g of Toluene

To know how much volume that toluene occupy you must use density thus:

26,18 g of toluene × ( 1 mL / 0,864 g) = 30,30 mL of toluene

The volume of both Toluene and the solid is 55,00 mL and the volume of toluene is 30,30 mL. Thus, the volume of the solid is:

55,00 mL - 30,30 mL = 24,70 mL

Knowing both volume and weight it is possible to know the density thus:

32,50 g / 24,70 mL = 1,316 g/mL

I hope it helps!
