Question

Calculate the density of a block of metal that has a volume of 3.40cm^3 and a mass of 31.5g. round your answer to the nearest hundreths place

Answer 1

The density of the metal block is 9.26 g/cm³.

To calculate the density of the block of metal, we can use the formula for density:

Density (D) = Mass (m) / Volume (V)

Given:

Mass (m) = 31.5 grams

Volume (V) = 3.40 cm³

Now, plug these values into the formula and calculate:

Density (D) = 31.5 g / 3.40 cm³

Density (D) ≈ 9.26 g/cm³ (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
