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?
Density is mass over volume. 8.96g/10mL(cm cubed) = 0.896g/mL (cm cubed. They're the same thing)
Answer : \(8.96 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}\)
Explanation : To find density, we can use the formula as given below;
density ρ = \(\frac{mass(m)}{volume(v)}\)
Here, we have the mass as 89.6 g and the volume is \(10.0 cm^{3}\),
on calculating we get,
This means that the density of the copper sample is \(8.96 g/ cm^{3}\)
