Question

A material has a density of 8.9 g/cm^3. You have 3 grams of the substance. How much space does it take up? a. 0.3cm3 b. 3.0 cm3 c. 5.9 cm3 d. 27 g/cm3

Answer 1

D = m/ V

8.9 = 3 / V

V = 3 / 8.9

V = 0.3 cm³

Answer A

hope this helps!

Answer 2

Volume of the material is
`0.3\ cm^3`

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Density of a material,
`d=8.9\ g/cm^3`

Mass of the material,
`m=3\ gm`

We need to find the volume occupied by the material. The formula for the density is given by :

`d=(m)/(V)`

`V=(m)/(d)`

`V=(3\ g)/(8.9\ g/cm^3)`

`V=0.33\ cm^3`

So, the space occupied by the material is
`0.3\ cm^3`. Hence, this is the required solution.
