Question

A solid block with a length of 6.0 cm, a width of 3.0 cm, and a height of 3.0 cm has a mass of 146 g. What is the block's density?

Answer 1

`rho` `=` `(146*g)/(54*cm^3)` `=` `??`

Explanation:

`"Density"`, `rho` `=` `"Mass"/"Per unit volume"` `=` `(146*g)/((6.0xx3.0xx3.0)*cm^3)` `=` `??*g*cm^-3`

Would this block float in water? Why or why not?
