Question

What is the mass of a piece of silver with dimensions of 8, 1 cm x 1.2 cm x 1.0 cm and a density of 10.5 g/cm^3?

Answer 1

Approx. `100*g`.

Explanation:

`"Density, "rho` `=` `"mass"/"volume"`

And thus `"Mass"` `=` `rhoxx"volume"`

`=` `10.5*g*cancel(cm^-3)xx8.1*cancel(cm)xx1.2*cancel(cm)xx1.0*cancel(cm)`

`=` `??*g`
