Question

A lead sphere has a mass of 1.20 x 104 g, and its volume is 1.05 x 103 cm^3. Calculate the density of lead.

Answer 1

Answer: The density of lead will be $11.42g/cm^3$

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

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

Given : Mass of lead=$1.20\times 10^4g$

Volume of lead =$1.05\times 10^3cm^3$

Putting in the values we get:

$Density=\frac{1.20\times 10^4}{1.05\times 10^3}=11.42g/cm^3$

Thus density of lead will be $11.42g/cm^3$
