Which has a greater density, a pound of feathers or a pound of gold

Chemistry
1 answer:
artcher [175]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello!!

Please remember that density=mass/volume.

In this case, we have the same mass for the feathers and the gold (1 pound).

So, if the mass is the same for both we have:

Df*Vg=Dg*Vf    where f means feathers and g means gold.

In this case we see density is inversely related to volume. Both materials have the same mass. So which one have a bigger volume?

For this take a pound of feathers and submerge in a known volume of water. Note the displacement. Do the same for a pound of gold. Whichever has the smaller displacement, has the greater density.

In this case, Gold has the greatest density.
