Question

What is the volume (in cm3) of a 36.7 g piece of metal with a density of 6.95 g/cm3?

Answer 1

To calculate the volume of given metal, we use the formula

$Density= \frac{mass}{volume}$

Given, the mass of metal 36.7 g and density of metal is 6.95 g/cm3

Therefore,

$6.95 g/cm^{3} = \frac{36.7 g}{volume}$

or         $volume = \frac{36.7 g}{6.95 g/cm^{3} }$

$volume = 5.3 cm^{3}$

Thus, the volume of metal piece is $5.3 cm^{3}$
