Given parameters:
Volume of metal block = 0.035mL
Mass of block = 765mg
Unknown:
Volume of metal block = ?
Solution:
Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance.
Density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]
Mass is the amount of matter in a substance
Volume is space occupied by a substance
Mass of the block in g;
765mg = 765 x 10⁻³ g
= 0.765g
Density = [tex]\frac{0.765}{0.035}[/tex] = 21.86g/mL
The density of the metal block is 21.86g/mL
