Question

What is the density of a piece of metal if a 4.25 cm³ piece has a mass of 12.5 g ?

Answer 1

Solution:

Density expression:

Density = mass / volume = g/mL or g/cm³

Therefore,

Density of a piece of metal = 12.5 g / 4.25 cm³ = 2.94 g/cm³

Answer: The density of a piece of metal is 2.94 g/cm³
