Question

What is the density, in g/mL, of a cube of lead (Pb) that weighs 0.371 kg and has a volume of 2.00 in.3

Answer 1

Answer:

11.32 g/mL

Explanation:

Given that:-

Mass = 0.371 kg = 371 g ( 1 kg = 1000 g)

Volume = 2.00 in³

The conversion of in³ to mL is as shown below:-

1 in³ = 16.3871 mL

So, Volume = $2.00\times 16.3871\ mL$ = 32.7741 mL

The expression for the calculation of density is shown below as:-

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$

Applying the values as:-

$\rho=\frac{371\ g}{32.7741\ mL}=11.32\ g/mL$
