Answer:
Mass of the liquid in the tank will be [tex]1.45\times 10^8kg[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given volume of tar [tex]V=3.20\times 10^5gallon[/tex]
1 gallon = 3.785 liter
So [tex]3.20\times 10^5gallon=3.20\times 10^{5}\times 3.785=12.112\times 10^5liter[/tex]
Specific gravity = 1.2
Density of water [tex]=1000kg/m^3[/tex]
We know that specific gravity [tex]=\frac{density\ of\ liquid}{density\ of\ water}[/tex]
[tex]1.2=\frac{density\ of\ liquid}{density\ of\ water}[/tex]
Density of liquid [tex]=1200kg/m^3[/tex]
So mass of liquid = volume × density
= [tex]12.112\times 10^5\times 1200=1.45\times 10^8kg[/tex]
So mass of the liquid in the tank will be [tex]1.45\times 10^8kg[/tex]
