Question

Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3. Calculate the volume (in dL) of a piece of iron having a mass of 4.59 kg .

Answer 1

Note:
k = 10^3
1 cm^3 = 10^-2 dL

Solutions

Density = (mass)/(volume)
Volume = (mass)/(density)
Volume = (4.59 × 10^3g)/(7.68g/cm³)
Volume = 583.97 cm³
Volume = (583.97 cm³)(10^-2 dL/1 cm³)

So volume = 5.84 dL approximately
