Question

A lead sphere has a mass of 1.20 x 104 g, and its volume is 1.05 x 103 cm^3. Calculate the density of lead.

Answer 1

Answer: The density of lead will be
`11.42g/cm^3`

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

`Density=(mass)/(Volume)`

Given : Mass of lead=
`1.20* 10^4g`

Volume of lead =
`1.05* 10^3cm^3`

Putting in the values we get:

`Density=(1.20* 10^4)/(1.05* 10^3)=11.42g/cm^3`

Thus density of lead will be
`11.42g/cm^3`
