Question
A sample of copper has a mass of 50 g and a volume of 5 cm^3. What is its density?
- A) 0.1 g/cm^3
- B) 10 g/cm^3
- C) 45 g/cm^3
- D) 55 g/cm^3
Solution
The density of an object is calculated by dividing its mass by its volume. In this case, the mass of the copper sample is 50 g and its volume is 5 cm^3.
Step 1: Write down the known quantities. Mass (m) = 50 g Volume (V) = 5 cm^3
Step 2: Write down the formula for density (D). D = m/V
Step 3: Substitute the known quantities into the formula. D = 50 g / 5 cm^3 = 10 g/cm^3
So, the density of the copper sample is 10 g/cm^3. The correct answer is B10 g/cm^3.
