An empty Erlenmeyer flask weighs 100 g. When filled with liquid (d = 1.5 g/cm³), the flask and its contents weigh 250 g. What is the flask’s volume?

150 cm³

100 cm³

250 cm³

None of these

Explanation

Mass of liquid = (Total mass) - (Flask mass) = 250 g - 100 g = 150 g

Volume = Mass / Density = 150 g / 1.5 g/cm³ = 100 cm³
