What is the density of an object that has a mass of 3SO_(8) and a volume of 95cm^(3) ? Would this object float in water? Explain.

Final answer:

To calculate the density of an object, we use the formula: Density = mass / volume. Without the correct mass and volume values, we cannot determine the density or whether the object will float in water.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the density of an object, we use the formula:

Density = mass / volume

In this case, the object has a mass of 3SO8 and a volume of 95 cm3. To find the density, we divide the mass by the volume:

Density = 3SO8 / 95 cm3

Unfortunately, the mass unit and the volume unit provided are not standard units, so we cannot calculate the density using these values.

To determine if the object will float in water, we need to compare the density of the object to the density of water. If the density of the object is less than the density of water, it will float. If the density of the object is greater than the density of water, it will sink.

Without the correct mass and volume values, we cannot determine the density or whether the object will float in water.
