Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 3 \ g/mL}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Density is equal to mass over volume.
[tex]\rho= \frac{m}{v}[/tex]
The mass is 48 grams and the volume is 16 milliliters.
[tex]m= 48 \ g\\v= 16 \ mL[/tex]
Substitute the values into the formula.
[tex]\rho= \frac{48 \ g}{16 \ mL}[/tex]
Divide.
[tex]\rho= 3 \ g/mL[/tex]
The density of the mystery liquid is 3 grams per milliliter.
