Question

Mass: 0.14 lbs, Volume: 125 ml. Find the density in g/cm³.

A) 1.12 g/cm³
B) 0.448 g/cm³
C) 0.0256 g/cm³
D) 0.00112 g/cm³

Answer 1

The density of the object is 0.51 g/cm³.

The density of a substance is defined as its mass divided by its volume. To find the density in g/cm³, we need to convert the mass from pounds to grams and the volume from ml to cm³.

First, convert the mass from pounds to grams:

0.14 lbs x 453.592 g/lb = 63.8 g

Next, convert the volume from ml to cm³:

125 ml = 125 cm³

Finally, divide the mass by the volume to find the density:

Density = 63.8 g / 125 cm³ = 0.51 g/cm³

Therefore, the density is 0.51 g/cm³.
