Matter and Measurement

In the universe, there is matter, energy, and void space. The universe contains energy and void space. The definition of matter can be considered as something which possesses mass and consumes space. Chemistry is that branch of science which deals with the study of matter. Under chemistry, nature, composition, and the changes occurring to matter are discussed.

I am trying to ascertain the density of 0.9-M HCl. The book provides a density of 1.0-M HCl as 1.016g/mL. I know the Molecular Weight aka Molar Mass is 36.46g/mol I also know that the equation to calculate the density in this instand is: Density=(Molarity x Molecular Weight)/WeightI have found examples online, and one answer provided here that shows the Density of 0.9-M HCl is 0.9115g/mL. That answer was arrived at as follows:Density = (0.9M x 36.46g/mol)/36 = 32.814/36 = 0.9115g/mL My problem is that I don't understand where the 36 came from for "weight", and I need to be able to show all unit measurements for each step. So my issue has 2 parts: 1) How was the Weight value determined to be 36 (I need to see the formula)2) Where in the step-by-step process is mL in there so that after all cancellations/conversions are completed, the only remaining units are g/mL to show how 0.9115g/mL was arrived at.
