Question

If the mass of a material is 47 grams and the volume of the material is 11 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?

Answer 1

Answer:
_____________________________________________________
The density is: " 4
`(3)/(11)` g / cm³ " .
_____________________________________________________
→ or; round to: " 4.2728 g / cm³ " .

Step-by-step explanation:
_____________________________________________________

Density, "D" =
mass, "m" [in grams, "g"] / Volume, "V" (mL or cm³; in this case: "cm³ ") ;

or: " D = m / V " ;

Note that "Density, "D" ; is expressed in terms of "mass per UNIT volume" .
_____________________________________________________
47 g / 11 cm³ = (47 / 11) g / cm³ ;

= 4.2727272727272727... g / cm³ ;
_____________________________________________________
→ Density, "D" = " 4
`(3)/(11)` g / cm³ " .
_____________________________________________________
→ or, round to: " 4.2728 g / cm³ " .
