Answer: The mass of the sample is 1264.800 kg.
Explanation:
Mass of the piece of copper = m
Volume of the copper price = [tex]130 L=130,000 cm^3[/tex]
[tex]1 L= 1,000 cm^3[/tex]
[tex]Density=8.96 g/cm^3=\frac{Mass}{Volume}=\frac{Mass}{130,000 cm^3}[/tex]
[tex]m=Density\times Volume=8.96 g/cm^3\times 130,000=1,264,800 g[/tex]
m = 1,264,800 g = 1,264.800 kg (1 kg = 1000 g)
The mass of the sample is 1264.800 kg.
