<u>Answer:</u>
Lead
<u>Explanation:</u>
To get the density of the material, the formula would be:
mass divided by volume which is given by
.
Here in this problem, we are given a mass of
which occupies a volume of
.
So plugging the data in the above formula to find the density:
Density =
From the table, we can see that the material is Lead which has a density of 11.3c/cm^3.
I’m going to use molasses as an example of a substance.
The mass and volume both change when changing the amount of molasses.
However, the density does not change. This is because the mass and volume increase at the same rate/proportion!
Even though there is more molasses (mass) in test tube A, the molasses also takes up more space (volume). Therefore, the spacing between those tiny particles that make up the molasses is constant (does not change).
The size or amount of a material/substance does not affect its density.
