Answer:

0.25 m³

Explanation:

We need the density to determine the volume of the liquid tank. WE can obtain this by converting specific gravity to density. Specific gravity is the ratio of the substance to water. We can therefore determine the density of the subtance:

[tex]SG=p_s/p_w[/tex]

[tex]2=p_s/1000[/tex]

[tex]p_s=2000[/tex]

The density of the substance is 2000kg/m³

The volume can be determine by dividing the mass of the liquid by its density:

[tex]V=500/2000=0.25[/tex]

The volume is 0.25 m³
