What is the volume of a solution that has a specific gravity of 1.2 & a mass of 185 g? Show work/explain how you got it? Thanks.
specific gravity = the density of the substance as compared to a reference substance of the same units, usually water at 4ºC
so, this substance has a density that is 1.2x > density of water, 1g/ml
185g / 1.2g/ml = 154.2ml
