Answer:

Option C = object B by 1 gram per cubic cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of object A = 12 g

Volume of object A = 8 cm³

Mass of object B = 20 g

Volume of object B = 8 cm³

Densities = ?

Solution:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Density of object A:

d = m/v

d = 12 g/ 8 cm³

d = 1.5 g/cm³

Density of object B:

d = m/v

d = 20 g/ 8 cm³

d = 2.5 g/cm³

object b has high density.
