Question

The density of seawater at $4^{\circ}\text{C}$ is}

• A. $1.008\text{ g/cm}^3$
• B. $1.0278\text{ g/cm}^3$
• C. $1.5000\text{ g/cm}^3$
• D. $2.0252\text{ g/cm}^3$

Hint:

Pure water density at $4^{\circ}\text{C}$ is exactly $1.0\text{ g/cm}^3$. Since seawater contains dissolved salts, its density must be slightly higher, making $1.0278\text{ g/cm}^3$ the most logical correct value.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B
