Question

Rice has a bulk density of 0.9 g/mL, but an individual grain of rice has a

density of 1.1 g/mL. Water has a density of 1.0 g/mL. What would happen to
a cup of rice when poured into a pot of water?

Answer 1

Individual grain of rice will sink.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rice bulk density = 0.9 g/ml,

Individual grain of rice density = 1.1 g/ml

Water density = 1.0 g/ml

Find:

What happens with a cup of rice when poured into water =?

Explanation:

Each piece of grains of rice will sink into the water because individual grains of rice has a higher density than water.
