56) For the masses and volumes indicated, calculate the
density in grams per cubic centimeter,
a. mass = 452.1 g; volume = 292 cm³
b. mass= 0.14 lb; volume = 125 mL
c. mass= 1.01 kg: volume = 1000 cm³
d. mass = 225 mg; volume = 2.51 mL

Answer 1

To calculate density in grams per cubic centimeter, divide the mass by the volume of the substance. Use the given values for mass and volume in each scenario to find the density.

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance is equal to the mass of the substance divided by its volume. To calculate the density in grams per cubic centimeter, use the formula:

Density (g/cm³) = Mass (g) / Volume (cm³)

1. a. For the given mass of 452.1 g and volume of 292 cm³, the density is 1.548 g/cm³.
2. b. For the given mass of 0.14 lb (1 lb = 453.6 g) and volume of 125 mL (1 mL = 1 cm³), the density is 1.144 g/cm³.
3. c. For the given mass of 1.01 kg (1 kg = 1000 g) and volume of 1000 cm³, the density is 1.01 g/cm³.
4. d. For the given mass of 225 mg (1 mg = 0.001 g) and volume of 2.51 mL (1 mL = 1 cm³), the density is 89.64 g/cm³.
