If a metal block with all sides equal (cube) has a length of 2.23 cm and a mass of 451.43 g, what is the density? Answer in g/mL. Hint: 1 mL = 1 cm3

Answer 1

Density = mass / volume

mass = 451.43 g

volume = L x W x H = (2.23 cm)(2.23 cm)(2.23 cm) = 11.0896 cm³ x 1 ml / cm³ = 11.0896 mls

Density = 451.43 g / 11.0896 mls = 40.708 g / ml
