The volume of a ball was measured at 500.0 cm?, and its mass was measured to be 404.2 g.

What would be the most accurate calculation of density for the ball? Round to the nearest ten thousandths.

Answer:

0.8084g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of a substance is calculated as follows:

Density = mass/volume

According to this question, the volume of a ball was measured at 500.0 cm³ and its mass was measured to be 404.2g. The density is this:

Density (P) = 404.2/500

Density = 0.8084

Density of the ball = 0.8084g/cm³
