Answer to Question #229830 in General Chemistry for Eka

Question

A cylindrical solid has a base diameter of 10cm and height of 20cm. the solid also weighs 4500g. calculate the density of cylindrical solid in g/cm³

Answer 1

Diameter of cylinder = $10\space cm$

Height of cylinder = $20\space cm$

Volume of cylinder = $\dfrac{\pi d^2h}{4}=1570.79\space cm^3$

Weight of solid = 4500 g

Density = $\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}=\dfrac{4500\space g}{1570.79\space cm^3}=2.86\space g/cm^3$
