Question

A package of aluminum foil is 63.2 yd long, 11 in. wide, and 0.00035 in. thick. If aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm³, what is the mass, in grams, of the foil?

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass of aluminium foil = 387.57_g

Explanation:

density of aluminium foil 2.70 g/cm³,

1_yd = 91.44_cm

1_in = 2.54_cm

Length of aluminum foil = 63.2_yd = 5779.008_cm

Width of aluminium foil = 11 in = 27.94_cm

Thickness of aluminium foil = 0.00035_in. = 0.000889_cm

Volume of aluminium foil = length × width × thickness = 5779.008_cm × 27.94_cm × 0.000889_cm = 143.54_cm^3

Mass of aluminium foil = (volume of aluminium foil) × (density of aluminium foil) = 143.54_cm³ × 2.70 g/cm³ = 387.57_g
