Given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
You are given the masses, in grams (g), and the volumes, in cubic centimeters (cm3), for a series of substances. Arrange them in order of increasing density(Lowest to Highest)
1- Gold 19.3g/1cm3
2- Chloroform 14.8g/10cm3
3- Copper 44.5g/5cm3
4- NaCl 43g/20cm3
5- Ice 92g/100cm3
6-Butane 2895g/5000cm3
Explanation:
Density is defined as the measurement obtained when mass of a substance is divided by the volume occupied by it.
Mathematically, Density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]
Hence, density of given species will be calculated as follows.
Gold = [tex]\frac{19.3 g}{1 cm^{3}}[/tex] = 19.3 [tex]g/cm^{3}[/tex]
Chloroform = [tex]\frac{14.8 g}{10 cm^{3}}[/tex] = 1.48 [tex]g/cm^{3}[/tex]
Copper = [tex]\frac{44.5 g}{5 cm^{3}}[/tex] = 8.9 [tex]g/cm^{3}[/tex]
NaCl = [tex]\frac{43 g}{20 cm^{3}}[/tex] = 2.15 [tex]g/cm^{3}[/tex]
Ice = [tex]\frac{92 g}{100 cm^{3}}[/tex] = 0.92 [tex]g/cm^{3}[/tex]
Butane = [tex]\frac{2895 g}{5000 cm^{3}}[/tex] = 0.579 [tex]g/cm^{3}[/tex]
Therefore, the given substances are ranked from west density to highest density as follows.
Butane < Ice < Chloroform < NaCl < Copper < Gold
