Question

3. A rock has a volume of 6 cm3 and a mass of 24g. What is the density of the rock?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Assume that the rock has a constant density,

then the density = volume/mass = 0.25g/cm^3.

Answer 2

Answer:

4 g/cm^3

Explanation:

Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume.

d=m/v

We know that the mass of the rock is 24 gram. We also know the volume of the rock is 6 cubic centimeters.

m=24 g

v= 6 cm^3

Substitute the values into the formula and divide.

d= 24 g / 6 cm^3

d= 4 g/cm^3

The density of the rock is 4 grams per cubic centimeter.
