Question

A nickel has a mass of 5g and a volume of approximately 0.689cm what is the approximate density of a nickel

Answer 1

about 7g/cm^3

Explanation:

`p = m / v`

where p is density is equal to mass (5g) divided by volume (.689cm^3).

or

`p = 5 / .689`

= 7.25 or approximately 7g/cm^3

or approximately .007kg/cm^3 dependent on what metric they want their answer in.
