Question

A certain material of mass 6.25g and volume 25cc is placed in a beaker containing water. Determine whether this material will sink or float in water? (Density of water is 1g/cc). Explain your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass :- 6.25g

Volume :- 25cc

Density =

\frac{mass}{volume}

volume

mass

Density :-

\frac{6.25}{25} = 0.25

25

6.25

=0.25

0.25g/cc

The density of a material is less than the density of water

therefore, the material will not shink but it will float.
