{\boxed{{ formula :}}}


→\bold{Density = (mass)/(volume) }


{\boxed{{ Given :}}}


→\bold{Mass = 225 g }


→\bold{ Volume = 236.6 ml}


{\boxed{{ Solution :}}}


→\bold{Density = (mass)/(volume) }


→\bold{ Density = \cancel{ (225 g)/(236.6 ml)} = 0.951 g/ml}

The density of pumice is 0.951 g/ ml .

to find:

density of the pumice.

solution:

density= mass/ volume (d= m/v)

= 225/236.6

= 0.951g/ml

so, the density of pumice is 0.951g/ml.
