To solve this problem, multiply 250 g by the latter. It's the same as dividing the mass by the density, but that's really not important here. As long as the units cancel out to a volume unit, everything's fine. 250 g x (1 cm3 / 8.9 g) = 28 cm3
Answer:
The mass of copper piece is 44.8 grams
Explanation:
Density is defined as amount of mass present in the unit volume of the substance.
Mathematically written as:
[tex]\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}[/tex]
We are given:
Density of copper, d =[tex]8.96 g/cm^3[/tex]
Mass of copper piece = M
Volume of the copper piece = V = [tex] 5.0 cm^3[/tex]
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]8.96 g/cm^3=\frac{M}{ 5.0 cm^3}[/tex]
[tex]M=8.96 g/cm^3\times 5.0cm^3=44.8 g[/tex]
Hence, the mass of copper piece is 44.8 grams
