Question

The mass of an object is measured to be 55.6 g. Its volume is measured to be 48.5 mL.

Answer 1

Answer:

1.15 g/mL

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 55.6 g

Volume (V) = 48.5 mL

Density (D) =?

Density is simply defined as the mass of the substance per unit volume of the substance. It is represented mathematically as:

Density (D) = mass (m) /volume (V)

D = m/V

With the above formula, we can obtain the density of the object as follow:

Mass (m) = 55.6 g

Volume (V) = 48.5 mL

Density (D) =?

D = m/V

D = 55.6/48.5

D = 1.15 g/mL

Therefore, the density of the object is 1.15 g/mL
