Question

What is the density of a mineral with a mass of 41.2 g and a volume of 8.2 cm3? 49.4 g/cm3 5.02 g/cm3 0.19 g/cm3 337.8 g/cm3

Answer 1

i think the correct answer would be 5.02g cm3

Answer 2

Density of the mineral is equal to
`5.02 (g)/(cm^(3) )`

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance is equal to mass of the substance divided by its volume.

Thus, the formula of density (d) is as follows

`d = (M)/(V)`

Where, M represent the mass of a substance

and V represents the volume of the same substance

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

`d = (41.2)/(8.2) (g)/(cm^(3) ) \\d = 5.02 (g)/(cm^(3) ) \\`

Hence, option B is correct
