3. A piece of white oak has a densityof 0.77 g/cm and a mass of 100 g,what would be the volume of thesample? PLEASE HELP!

Nezavi [6.7K]

$\text{Volume}=129.87cm^3$

Explanation

Step 1

the density of an object is given by:

$\text{density}=\text{ }\frac{mass}{\text{volume}}$

Step 2

let

$\begin{gathered} \text{density}=0.77\frac{g}{cm^3} \\ \text{mass}=\text{ 100 g} \\ \end{gathered}$

Step 3

replace,

$\begin{gathered} \text{density}=\text{ }\frac{mass}{\text{volume}} \\ 0.77\frac{g}{cm^3}=\frac{100g}{\text{volume}} \\ \text{volume}\cdot0.77\frac{g}{cm^3}=\text{1}00\text{ g} \\ \\ \text{Volume}=\frac{100\text{ g}}{0.77\frac{g}{cm^3}} \\ \text{Volume}=129.87cm^3 \end{gathered}$

I hope this helps you
