Consider eight,eight-cubic centimeter (8 cm3) sugar cubes stacked so that they form a single 2 x 2 x 2 cube. How does the surfac

e area of the single, large cube compare to the total surface area of the individual eight cubes? Report your answer as a ratio. Be sure to show all calculations leading to an answer.

To find the surface area of a single cube we first nees to take the cube root of 8cm3 which is 2.

Now we know that the length of each side is 2 and we can find the area of one side by doing 2x2 which is 4.

To find the total surface area of one cube we do 4 times 6 side giving us a total of 24cm2.

To find the total surface area of the 8 individual cubes, we multiply 24cm2 by 8 to give us a total of 192cm2.

Now to find the total surface area of the one large cube, we know that each side of one of the small cubes is 4cm2 and the large cube is set up so that there are two levels of four cubes right on top of each other. So, the total area of each side of the large cube is 4cm2 times 4 which gives us 16cm2.

Then we multiply 16cm2 by 6 sides to give us a total surface area of 96cm2.

The ratio of the surface area of the single large cube comapred to the total surface area of the single cubes is 96:192

We can further simplify this ratio:

96:192

48:96

24:48

12:24

6:12

3:6

1:2

What type of change accurs when a substance stays the same
Thepotemich [5.8K]
This would be a physical change because it can change back to its original form. This is like ripping paper. You can piece it back together and it still is paper.

The opposite of this is chemical change. Chemical change means the product has been changed completely like burning paper. The paper has now been turned to ash and it's impossible to change this back to its original form.

Which states of matter are significantly compressible?
andreev551 [17]
Hello.


The gaseous state is the more compressible state, because it has the volume of its container.

The liquid state is virtually incompressible, and the solid state compression is very small.

The plasma is another state that has high compression, but in this case the matter is not bound(we don't have the proton in the core of the atom)
