Question

If the mass of a material is 45 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm^3, what would the density of the material be? Asks for answer and units

Answer 1

Answer: -

3.75 grams / $cm^{3}$

Explanation: -

Mass of the material = 45 grams

Volume of the material = 12 $cm^{3}$

Density is defined as mass per unit volume.

Density of the material = Mass of the material / volume of the material

= 45 grams / 12 $cm^{3}$

= 3.75 grams / $cm^{3}$

We see that the unit is grams / $cm^{3}$

Thus if the mass of a material is 45 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm3, 3.75 gm / $cm^{3}$ would the density of the material .

Answer 2

the mass of a material is 45 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm3, 3.75 gm / cm^{3} would the density of the material .
