Question

The density of lead is 11.4g/cm^3 at 25 degrees C. Calculate the volume occupied by 25.0g of lead

Please include step by step process

Answer 1

2.193 cm³

Explanation:

density is mass divided by volume:

`density = (mass)/(volume)`

you can manipulate the formula by multiplying with volume:

`density * volume = mass`

then dividing by density:

`volume = (mass)/(density)`

in this case:

`volume = (25g)/(11.4 (g)/(cm) ) = 2.193 { \: cm}^(3)`
