Question

Solid block of exactly 100.0cm3 has a mass of 153.6 g. Determine it's density.

Answer 1

The density of an object is defined to be the mass of the object divided by its volume. For this problem, the mass of the object is 153.6 g while its volume is 100.0 cm^3. Thus, we simply divide 153.6 g by 100.0 cm^3 to get the solid block's density. We then obtain its density to be equal to 1.536 g/cm^3. It should also be noted that the density of an object gives a sense of how compact the object is.  

Answer 2

Answer:

$1.536 g/cm^3$is the density of the solid block.

Explanation:

Mass of the solid block= m = 153.6 g

Volume of the solid block = V = $100.0cm^3$

Density of the solid block,d = ?

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

$d=\frac{m}{V}=\frac{153.6 g}{100.0cm^3}=1.536 g/cm^3$

$1 mL =1 cm^3$

$1.536 g/cm^3$is the density of the solid block.
