Question

What is the volume of a salt crystal measuring 1.44 x 10^-2 m by 2.4 x 10-3 by 7.4 x 10^-1.. and can you explain how you got it please

Answer 1

The shape of a sal crystal is a right parallelepipede (cuboid)

The formula for the volumen, V, is: V = area of the base * height = side 1 * side 2 * side 3.

V = 1.44 * 10^-2 m * 2.4*10^3 m * 7.4*10^-1m = 2.56*10^-5 m^3
