Question

Object A has a mass of 12 g and a density of 3 g/cm Object B has a mass of 12 g and a density of 5 g/cmº. Which object has a greater volume and by how much?

Answer 1

Object A has the greater volume by 1.6 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density = mass / volume

Solving for volume:

Volume = mass / density

For object A:

V = 12 g / (3 g/cm³)

V = 4 cm³

For object B:

V = 12 g / (5 g/cm³)

V = 2.4 cm³

Object A has the greater volume by 1.6 cm³.
