Question

What is the density of an 820 g sample of pure silicon occupying a 350 cm3 container

Answer 1

Answer:

2.343 g/ cm³

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

density = ?

volume= 350 cm³

mass= 820 g

Now we will put the values in the formula,

d= m/v

d= 820 g/ 350 cm³

d= 2.343 g/ cm³

The density of silicon is 2.343 g/ cm³
