Question

The density of platinum (Pt) is 21.5 g/cm^3 at 250C. What is the volume of 87.6 g of Pt at this temperature?

Answer 1

Answer: The volume of platinum is
`4.1cm^3`

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

`Density=(mass)/(Volume)`

Given : Mass of platinum= 87.6 grams

Density of the object =
`21.5g/cm^3`

Putting in the values we get:

`21.5/cm^3=(87.6g)/(Volume)`

`Volume=4.1cm^3`

Thus the volume of platinum is
`4.1cm^3`
