Question

What is the density of an object that has a mass of 28.1g and a volume of 96.2mL? Select the correct answer below: 0.292g/mL 2703g/mL 1.00g/mL 3.42g/mL

Answer 1

Answer:

0.292 g/mL.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of object = 28.1 g

Volume of object = 96.2 mL

Density of object =..?

Density of an object is simply defined as the mass of the object per unit volume of the object. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

Density = mass / volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the density of the object as follow:

Mass of object = 28.1 g

Volume of object = 96.2 mL

Density of object =..?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 28.1 / 96.2

Density of object = 0.292 g/mL

Thus the density of the object is 0.292 g/mL
