Question

An scientist located a nugget of an unknown substance. However, he determined that this nugget has a

mass of 63 g and a volume of 9 cm^3. What is the density of this nugget?

Answer 1

Answer: The density of this nugget is
`7\text{ g cm}^(-3)` .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Mass of nugget = 63 g

Volume =
`9\ cm^3`

The computation of density of a substance is given by :-

`\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Density}=(63)/(9)\text{ g cm}^(-3)`

`\Rightarrow\ \text{Density =}7\text{ g cm}^(-3)`

Therefore, the density of this nugget is
`7\text{ g cm}^(-3)` .
