Calculate the volume in millilitres of a {eq}5.41 \ g {/eq} sample of a solid with a density of {eq}3.01 \ g / mL. {/eq}

Question:

Calculate the volume in millilitres of a {eq}5.41 \ g {/eq} sample of a solid with a density of {eq}3.01 \ g / mL. {/eq}

Density

Density is a compares the amount of matter an object has to its volume. The formula of density:

{eq}\rho \, = \, \frac{m}{v} {/eq}

which,

{eq}\rho {/eq} = density.

m = mass.

v = volume.

The unit of density: {eq}\frac{g}{cm^{3}} \, or \, \frac{kg}{L} \, or \, \frac{g}{mL} {/eq}. One of applications of density is lava lamps.

We are given:

  • mass (m) = 5.41 grams.
  • density ({eq}\rho {/eq}) = 3.01 g/mL.


Since we know the formula of density, we can convert the mass into...
