Question

What is the density of a 0.996g piece of graphite with a volume of 0.44 cm^3

a. 2.3g/cm^3
b. 2g
c. 2.263g
d. 3g/cm

(pls show work or explain why)

Answer 1

Answer :-

• a) 2.3 g/cm^3

Step-by-step explanation :-

We know that -

`\purple{\small \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{ \pmb{ Density = (Mass)/(Volume )}}}}}\\`

On substituting the values -

`\longmapsto \sf { Density _((graphite) ) = (0.996)/(0.44)}\\`

`\longmapsto \sf { Density _((graphite) ) =\cancel{ (0.996)/(0.44)}}\\`

`\longmapsto \sf { Density _((graphite) ) = 2.2636}\\`

`\longmapsto \boxed{ \tt{ \pmb{ \red{Density _((graphite) )=2.3\: gm/cm^(3)}}}}\\`

`\\ \therefore \underline{ \cal{ \pmb{The \:density \: of \: graphite \: is \: \frak{\purple{2.3\: gm/cm^(3) \: }. }}}}\\`
