Question

Calculate the density if the mass of a solid material is measured as 15.00 grams and its volume is measured as 5.0 cm3? round off your answer to the proper number of significant figures

Answer 1

15.00 g / 5.0 cm³ = (15.00 ÷ 5.0) g / cm³ = 3.0 g / cm³ .

Answer 2

Answer:

3.0 gm/cm³

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of solid material (m) = 15.00 grams

volume of the material (v) = 5.0 cm³

We know that density is

$= \frac{mass}{volume}$

Thus the density of the material is

$= \frac{m}{v}$

$= \frac{15.00}{5.0}$

$= 3.0$

Thus the density is 3.0 gm/cm³.
