Taking into account the definition of density, the density of the solid is 2 \(\frac{g}{cm^{3} }\).
First of all, density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space. That is, density is a quantity referred to the amount of mass in a given volume of a substance or an object.
Being the relationship between the weight (mass) of a substance and the volume it occupies, the density is calculated as the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies, obtaining the expression:
\(density=\frac{mass}{volume}\)
In this case, you know that:
- mass= 3.60 g
- volume= 1.8 cm³
Replacing in the definition of density:
\(density=\frac{3.6 g}{1.8 cm^{3} }\)
Solving:
density= 2 \(\frac{g}{cm^{3} }\)
Finally, the density of the solid is 2 \(\frac{g}{cm^{3} }\).
