The mass of an erlenmeyer flask is 85.135 g. after 10.00 ml of water is added to the flask, the mass of the flask and the water is 95.023 g. calculate the density (in g/ml) of water.

Subtracting the mass of (flask+water) from the empty flask gives:

95.023 g - 85.135 g = 9.888 grams of water

Dividing this by the given volume of 10.00 mL water gives:

9.888 grams of water / 10.00 mL of water = 0.9888 g/mL of water

Therefore, based on this sample, the density of water is 0.9888 g/mL, which is close to the usually accepted approximation of 1 g/mL.
