Question

A metal cylinder has a mass of 6.20 g. The density of the cylinder is 21.0 g/mL. What is its volume?

Answer 1

AnsWer :

• We're given in the question that, a metal cylinder has a mass (m) of 6.20 g.
• It is also given that, the density (ρ) of the cylinder is 21.0 g/mL.
• We are asked to find the volume (v) = ?

For calculating the volume (v) we need to use the given below formula :

↠ρ = m/v

Rearranging the above formula we get :

↠v = m/ρ

Now, simply plug in the known values in the above formula :

↠v = m/ρ

↠v = 6.20 g/(21.0 g/mL)

↠v = 0.295 mL

∴ The volume of metal cylinder is 0.295 mL.
