Question

3. A piece of white oak has a densityof 0.77 g/cm and a mass of 100 g,what would be the volume of thesample? PLEASE HELP!

Answer 1

`\text{Volume}=129.87cm^3`

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

the density of an object is given by:

`\text{density}=\text{ }\frac{mass}{\text{volume}}`

Step 2

let

`\begin{gathered} \text{density}=0.77(g)/(cm^3) \\ \text{mass}=\text{ 100 g} \\ \end{gathered}`

Step 3

replace,

`\begin{gathered} \text{density}=\text{ }\frac{mass}{\text{volume}} \\ 0.77(g)/(cm^3)=\frac{100g}{\text{volume}} \\ \text{volume}\cdot0.77(g)/(cm^3)=\text{1}00\text{ g} \\ \\ \text{Volume}=\frac{100\text{ g}}{0.77(g)/(cm^3)} \\ \text{Volume}=129.87cm^3 \end{gathered}`

I hope this helps you
