SHOW ANSWER
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Understand the Relationship Between Mass, Volume, and Density
The relationship between mass, volume, and density is given by the formula:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}
\]
We can rearrange this formula to solve for volume:
\[
\text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}}
\]
Step 2: Substitute the Given Values
We are given the mass of the liquid as \(30.0 \, \text{g}\) and the density as \(2.00 \, \text{g/mL}\). Substitute these values into the formula:
\[
\text{Volume} = \frac{30.0 \, \text{g}}{2.00 \, \text{g/mL}}
\]
Step 3: Calculate the Volume
Perform the division to find the volume:
\[
\text{Volume} = 15.0 \, \text{mL}
\]
Final Answer
The volume of the liquid is \(\boxed{15.0 \, \text{mL}}\).
