Question

A sample of a substance has a mass of 4.2 grams and a volume of 6 milliliters. The density of this substance BLANK) ( grams/milliliter.

Answer 1

0.7 my teacher just gave me the answer i got too lazy to explain why

Answer 2

Answer:- Density of the substance is
`0.7(g)/(mL)` .

Solution:- Density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume. The density formula is:

`d=(M)/(V)`

where d stands for density, M stands for mass and V stands for volume.

Given mass is 4.2 grams and the volume is 6 mL. Let's plug in the values of mass and volume in the formula to calculate the density.

`d=(4.2g)/(6mL)`

`d=0.7(g)/(mL)`

So, the density of the substance is
`0.7(g)/(mL)` .
