Daniel has a sample of pure copper. Its mass is 89.6 grams (g), and its volume is 10 cubic centimeters (cm3). What’s the density of the sample?


0.11 g/cm3
8.96 g/cm3
11.1 g/cm3
896 g/cm3

Respuesta :

Density = mass /volume = 89.6/10 = 8.96gm/cm^3.

Answer: 8.96 g/cm3

Explanation: Density is defined as the mass of a substance contained in unit volume of a substance.

[tex]Density=\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

Given : mass of pure copper = 89.6 g

Volume of copper= [tex]cm^3[/tex]

thus [tex]Density=\frac{89.6g}{10cm^3}[/tex]

[tex]\text {Density of the sample of copper is}}=8.96g/cm^3[/tex]
