Question

Cork has a density of 0.240 g/cm. What volume would 10.0 grams of cork have?

Answer 1

41.7 ml or `41.7 cm^3`

Explanation:

D = M/V so substituting the values into the equation gives.

`0.240 = 10/ V` Solving for V multiply both sides by V.

`V xx 0.240 = V xx 10/V` This results in

`V xx 0.240 = 10` divide both sides by 0.240 gives

`V xx 0.240/0.240 = 10/0.240` This gives the answer

V = 41.7 ml
