Math Problem Statement

the density of a solid object with a mass of 9.58 g and occupies volume of 1.20ml equals

Solution

To find the density of the solid object, you can use the formula:

Density=MassVolume\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}

Given:

  • Mass m=9.58gm = 9.58 \, \text{g}
  • Volume V=1.20mLV = 1.20 \, \text{mL}

Calculation:

Density=9.58g1.20mL=7.9833g/mL\text{Density} = \frac{9.58 \, \text{g}}{1.20 \, \text{mL}} = 7.9833 \, \text{g/mL}

Rounding the Result:

Rounding to three significant figures (since the least precise value given has three significant figures):

Density7.98g/mL\text{Density} \approx 7.98 \, \text{g/mL}

So, the density of the solid object is 7.98 g/mL.

Would you like more details or have any questions? Here are some related questions:

  1. How would the density change if the mass was doubled but the volume remained the same?
  2. How can you convert density from g/mL to kg/m³?
  3. What is the significance of knowing the density of a material?
  4. How would you experimentally determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
  5. What materials have a density close to 7.98 g/mL?

Tip: When performing calculations, it's important to pay attention to the number of significant figures to ensure the result is as precise as the input data allows.
