Question

Compute the density in g/cm^3 of a piece of metal that had mass of 0.485 kg and a volume of 52cm^3

Answer 1

9.3 g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert kg to g:

0.485 kg × (1000 g / kg) = 485 g

Density is mass divided by volume:

D = (485 g) / (52 cm³)

D = 9.33 g/cm³

Rounding to two significant figures, the density is 9.3 g/cm³.
