Question

A hot dog bun (volume 215 cm3) with a density of 0.11 g/cm3 is crushed in a picnic cooler into a volume of 135 cm3. What is the new density of the bun?

Answer 1

The answer to your question is: density = 0.175 g/cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

v1 = 215 cm3

density1 = 0.11 g/cm3

v2 = 135 cm3

mass = ?

Formula

density = mass/volume

First, calculate mass

mass = density x volume mass = 0.11 X 215 = 23.65 g

Now, calculate density with the second volume

density = 23.65 g / 135 cm3

density = 0.175 g/cm3
