Sugar is used to fill a box that has a volume of 200 cm3. The sugar weighs 316 grams. What is the density of sugar? (Ignore the space between the sugar crystals.)

Respuesta :

Answer: The density of sugar is [tex]1.58g/cm^3[/tex]

Explanation:

To calculate the density of a substance, we use the equation:

[tex]Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]

We are given:

Mass of sugar = 316 g

Volume of box = [tex]200cm^3[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\text{Density of sugar}=\frac{316g}{200cm^3}\\\\\text{Density of sugar}=1.58g/cm^3[/tex]

Hence, the density of sugar is [tex]1.58g/cm^3[/tex]
