    Therefore, the density of mercury is 1.8g/mol

    Explanation:

    To calculate the density of a substance, we use the equation:

    Density = mass / volume

    we are given,

    Mass of mercury = 40,500 mg = 40.5g

    Volume of mercury = 22.5 mL

    inserting the values in the equation

    density of mercury = 40.5g / 22.5 mL

    density of mercury = 1.8g/mol

    Therefore, the density of mercury is 1.8g/mol
