The density of a 4.5 g cube with an edge length of 5.5 cm is 0.027 g/mL
The formulas and the procedures we will use are:
Where:
- s= edge length
- v= volume
- ρ= density
- m= mass
Information about the problem:
- s = 5.5 cm
- m= 4.5 g
- ρ= ?
- v= ?
Calculating the volume of the cube, we get:
v = s³
v = (5.5 cm)³
v = 166.38 cm³
Converting the volume of the cube from cm3 to mL, we get:
1 cm3 is equivalent to 1 mL, so
166.38 cm³ is equivalent to 166.38 mL
Applying the density formula, we get:
ρ = m/v
ρ = 4.5 g/166.38 mL
ρ = 0.027 g/mL
What is density?
It is a physical quantity that expresses the ratio of the body mass to the volume it occupies.
