A sample in lab displaces 15 mL of water in a graduated cylinder. When placed on a scale the mass is 8.7 g. What is the density of the sample.

Respuesta :

Answer:

0.58 g/mL

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

[tex]Density = \frac{mass}{volume} [/tex]

From the question

volume = 15 mL

mass of object = 8.7 g

We have

[tex]Density = \frac{8.7}{15} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

0.58 g/mL

Hope this helps you
