Say you had another object of the exact same material as the previous question. You need to know the volume but the object is irregularly shaped and is much too large for graduated cylinder. However, you know that the mass is 382 g. What is the volume of the object?

Answer:

  • 152.8 cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the material of the object is the same as the previous object

In the previous question, we determined the density of the material is 2.5 g/cm3

We are given the mass of this object is 382 g

To find the volume, we can use the equation:

  • Mass = Density x Volume

Plugging in the values we know:

  • 382 g = (2.5 g/cm3) x Volume

Solving for Volume:

Volume = Mass / Density

  • = 382 g / 2.5 g/cm3
  • = 152.8 cm3
