The density of any substance does not change at a certain temperature and pressure. Even though mass and volume are intensive properties (depends on the amount of substance), density is not. It is merely a fixed ratio of mass to volume. Therefore, the solution is
Density = Mass/Volume
For your information, quantitatively, cm³ is equivalent to mL.
Density = 100 g/4.67 cm³ = 21.41 g/cm³
The correct answer is 2.70 × 10² g or 270 g.
It is given, that the density of a metal is 9.80 g/ml.
Let the mass of a sample of metal be x.
The sample of metal is dropped in 28.9 ml of water, due to which the volume of the water increases to 56.4 ml.
In order to calculate the mass of a metal, there is a need to use the formula, mass = density * volume
Mass = (9.80 g/ml) (56.4 ml - 28.9 ml)
= (9.80 g/ml) (27.5 ml)
= 2.70 × 10² g or 270 g
5.75 Grams per cm^3
You do mass divided by volume
