An unknown, rectangular substance measures 3.6 cm high, 4.21 cm long, and 1.17 cm wide. if the mass is 21.3 g, what is this substances density (in grams per milliliter)?

Answer :

Volume of rectangular substance (cm3)=3.6 x 4.21 x 1.17=17.7 cm3
Volume of rectangular substance ( mm3)=17.7 x 1000=17700 mm3 (As moving from bigger to smaller so we multiply and as it is cube so we multiply by 1000)
                                     (1cm=10mm)
density=21.3/17700=0.001203 g/mm3
ANSWER IS 0.001203 g/mm3 density

Answer:

density=1.2g/cm^3

Explanation:

Hello,

Density is defined as the degree of compactness of a substance and is mathematically expressed via the division between the substance's mass and the occupied volume:

[tex]density=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]

Thus, the occupied volume is:

[tex]V=3.6cm*4.21cm*1.17cm=17.73cm^3[/tex]

Finallt, the computed density:

[tex]density=\frac{21.3g}{17.73cm^3}\\density=1.2g/cm^3[/tex]

Best regards.
