Question

A certain material has a mass of 12.48 g while occupying 12.48 cm3 of space. What is this material?

Answer 1

This material has a density of 1 g/cm3.
(since 12.48 g/ 12.48 cm3 = 1 g/cm3)

Therefore, this material is water.

Answer 2

Answer: The material is water as it has density of $1g/cm^3$  

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.  It is characteristic of a material.

$Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}$

Given : Mass of object =12.48 grams

Volume of the object = $12.48cm^3$

Putting in the values we get:

$Density=\frac{12.48g}{12.48cm^3}$

$Density=1g/cm^3$

Thus the density of the material is $1g/cm^3$ and material is water which has density of  $1g/cm^3$.
