What is the mass of a block that is 4.5 cm x 3.4 cm x 2 cm and has a density of 12.30 g/cm^3

Question

Is it 376.4 cm, 376.4 g, or 55.35 g.

Answer 1

The volume of a cube is given by s^3.

the volume of this cube is 4.5cm x 2cm x3.4 cm = 30.6 cm^3.

 

density = mass/volume

12.3 g/cm^3 =mass / 30.6 cm^3

mass = 12.3 g/cm^3 x 30.6 cm^3

mass =376.38 g

approximately 376.4 g
