Question

A student measured the mass and volume of a metal sample using a triple beam balance and a graduated cylinder. The sample has a mass of 16.7 grams and a volume of 4.4 cm? What is the density of the metal sample rounded to the nearest tenth?​

Answer 1

`d=3.79\ g/cm^3`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a sample, m = 16.7 grams

Volume of the sample, V = 4.4 cm³

We need to find the density of the metal sample.

Density = mass/volume

Substituting all the values,

`d=(16.7\ g)/(4.4\ cm^3)\\\\=3.79\ g/cm^3`

So, the density of the metal sample is
`3.79\ g/cm^3`.
