Question

Sadiq measured the dimensions of a 1 kg bag of sugar and found the length was 9.2 cm, the width was 6 cm and the height was 14.1 cm.

Calculate the density of the sugar in g/cm3

Answer 1

`d=1.28* 10^(-6)\ g/cm^3`

Explanation:

The mass of a bag of sugar, m = 1 kg = 0.001 g

Length of bag, l = 9.2 cm

Width of bag, b = 6 cm

Height of the bag, h = 14.1 cm

We need to find the density of the sugar bag.

Density = mass/volume

So,

`d=(0.001\ g)/(9.2* 6* 14.1\ cm^3)\\\\d=1.28* 10^(-6)\ g/cm^3`

So, the density of the bag is
`1.28* 10^(-6)\ g/cm^3`.
