Question

A chemist has a block of aluminum metal (density is 2.7 g/mL). The block weighs 1.9 g. What is the volume, in mL, of the aluminum block?

Answer 1

Answer: v = 0.70 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can use the Density equation

(d = density (g/ml), m = mass (g), v = volume (ml))

D = m/v

2. Plug in what we have and solve for v.

2.7 = 1.9/v

v = 0.70 ml
