Question

How many grams of iron (density = 7. 87 g/ml ) would occupy the same volume as 96. 4 g of aluminum (density = 2. 70 g/ml)?.

Answer 1

Explanation:

density = mass / volume

96.4 g of aluminum / volume = 2.7

therefore,

96.4 = 2.7 × volume

volume = 96.4 / 2.7 = 35.7037037... ml

back to iron :

7.87 = mass / 35.7037037...

mass = 7.87 × 35.7037037... = 280.9881481... g

it would be 280.9881481... g of iron in the same volume.
