Question

The mass of a piece of iron pyrite, or "fools gold", is 57.2 g. The volume is 11 cm3. What is the density of the piece of iron pyrite? Hint: Density = massvolume

Density =
g/cm3

Answer 1

5.2 g/cm³

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

`density = (mass)/(volume) \\`

From the question we have

`density = (57.2)/(11) = 5.2 \\`

We have the final answer as

5.2 g/cm³

Hope this helps you
