Question

The density of matter is calculated using the formula p = ", where p is the density in grams per cubic centimeter, m

is the mass in grams, and V is the volume in cubic centimeters. If a sample of 105 grams of silver has a density of 10.5
grams per cubic centimeter, what is the volume of the sample, in cubic centimeters?
0.01
O 0.1

1
10

Answer 1

Volume = 0.1 cu. cm.

Explanation:

p = m V

where p = 10.5 grams/cu. cm.

m = 105 grams

plugin values into the equation:

10.5 grams/cu. cm. = 105 grams V

V = 10.5 grams/cu. cm.

105 grams

V = 0.1 cu. cm.
