The following equation can be used to relate the density of liquid water to Celsius temperature in the range from O°C to about 20°C, rho (g/cm3) = 0.99984 + (1.6945 x 10-2 t) - (7.987 x 10-6 t2)

1 + (1.6880 x 10-2 t)

(a) To four significant figures, determine the density of water at 10°C

(b) At what temperature does water have a density of 0.99860 g/cm3?

    a) T = 10°C ⇒ ρ = 0.9997 g/cm³

    b) ρ = 0.99860 g/cm³ ⇒ T = 16.7°C

    Explanation:

    ∴ ρ = (0.99984 + (1.6945 E-2 T) - (7.987 E-6 T²)) / (1 + (1.6880 E-2 T))

    a) T = 10 °C

    ⇒ ρ = (0.99984 + (1.6945 E-2 (10)) - (7.987 E-6 (10) ²)) / (1 + (1.6880 E-2 (10)))

    ⇒ ρ = (0.99984 + 0.16945 - 7.987 E-4) / (1 + 0.1688)

    ⇒ ρ = 0.9997 g/cm³

    b) ρ = 0.99860 g/cm³³

    ⇒ 0.99860m = (0.99984 + 1.6945 E-2T - 7.987 E-6T²) / (1 + 1.6880 E-2 T)

    ⇒ 0.99860 * (1 + 1.6880 E-2T) = 0.99984 + 1.6945 E-2T - 7.987 E-6T²

    ⇒ 0.99860 + 0.016856T = 0.99984 + 1.6945 E-2T - 7.987 E-6T²

    ⇒ 7.987 E-6T² - 8.8632 E-5T - 1.24 E-3 = 0

    ⇒ T = 16.7°C
