Question

A sample of a substance has a mass of 4.2 grams and a volume of 6 milliliters. The density of this substance BLANK) ( grams/milliliter.

Answer 1

0.7 my teacher just gave me the answer i got too lazy to explain why

Answer 2

Answer:- Density of the substance is $0.7\frac{g}{mL}$ .

Solution:- Density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume. The density formula is:

$d=\frac{M}{V}$

where d stands for density, M stands for mass and V stands for volume.

Given mass is 4.2 grams and the volume is 6 mL. Let's plug in the values of mass and volume in the formula to calculate the density.

$d=\frac{4.2g}{6mL}$

$d=0.7\frac{g}{mL}$

So, the density of the substance is $0.7\frac{g}{mL}$ .
