Question

A student measures the mass 8cm block of brown sugar to be 12.9g. what is the density of the brown sugar.

Answer 1

0.025g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

let us assume that the length is 8cm since it is not clearly given.

Given parameters:

Mass of the cube sugar = 12.9g

length of the sugar = 8cm

Unknown:

Density of the brown sugar = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a body. It is given as;

Density =
`(mass)/(volume)`

Volume of the cube sugar = l³

= 8³

= 512cm³

Input the parameters;

Density =
`(12.9)/(512)` = 0.025g/cm³
