Answer:
The density of iron is 7.9 g/cm3 and its specific gravity is 7.9.
Explanation:
Density is mass per unit of volume of a substance. The density equation is:
density = massvolume
Specific gravity is the ratio between the density of a substance and the density of a reference substance, usually water at 4oC, which is 1.000kg/L, which.......
In order to determine the density of the iron shot, you must know its mass and volume. The volume is the amount of water that was displaced. The mass is given as 28.5 g.
Volumeiron shot = 49.1mL - 45.5mL = 3.6mL = 3.6cm3 (1mL = 1cm3)
Densityiron shot = 28.5g3.6cm3 = 7.9g/cm3
Specific gravityiron shot = 7.9gcm31.000gcm3= 7.9*
*Specific gravity is a dimensionless value because the density units cancel.
