Answer:

volume = 272.7 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula


volume = (mass)/(Density)

From the question

mass of Iron = 1500 g

Density = 5.5 g/mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's


volume = (1500)/(5.5) \\ = 272.727272...

We have the final answer as

volume = 272.7 mL

Hope this helps you
