George determines the mass of his evaporating dish to be 3.375 g. He adds a solid sample to the evaporating dish, and the mass of them combined is 26.719 g. What must be the mass of his solid sample

Answer :

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       Mass of evaporating dish = 3.375 g

    Total mass = Mass of solid sample + evaporating dish

That is, Mass of solid sample + evaporating dish = 26.719 g

Therefore, we will calculate the mass of solid sample as follows.

    Mass of solid sample = (Mass of solid sample + evaporating dish) - mass of evaporating dish

                            = 26.719 g – 3.375 g

                            = 23.344 g

Thus, we can conclude that mass of his solid sample must be 23.344 g.
