Question

If a large marshmallow has a volume of 2.50 i n 3 and density of 0.242 g/c m 3 , how much would it weigh in grams? 1 i n 3 =16.39 c m 3 .

Answer 1

Density of a substance is defined as the mass of the substance divided by the volume.

Density of the substance= 0.242 g cm⁻³  

volume of the substance= 2.50 in³  

As, 1 in³= 16.39 cm³  

So, 2.50 in³= 16.39× 2.50 cm³=40.97 cm³

As ,  

$Density=\frac{mass}{volume}$  

Mass=volume ×Density

Mass=40.97 × 0.242

Mass=9.916 g.
