Answer

Using the provided mass of 2230 g and the volume of \(1.56 \times 10^6 cm³\), and substituting these values into the given formula: <br />\[<br />\text { Density }=\frac{2230 \mathrm{~g}}{1.56 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~cm}^{3}}<br />\]<br />Tell us that the density is \(1.43 \times 10^{-3} g/cm^3\). Therefore, the density of our oxygen gas to three significant figures is \(1.43 \times 10^{-3} g/cm^{3}\).

Explain

This task asks for the density of oxygen gas using the given mass and volume of the gas. The formula for density, \(\rho = \frac {mass}{volume}\) allows us to determine the density by substituting the given values. Please note that the mass is given in kilograms (kg) and should be converted to grams (g) for our answer to be in g/cm³. Since 1 kg is equivalent to 1000 g, we have 2.23 kg converts to 2230 g.
