A piece of volume 40cm3 whose density is 6.8g/cm3. find . the mass of iron
Answers
Answer:
Hence, mass of iron = 272 g
Explanation:
Given,
Volume of iron piece = 40 cm^3
Density of iron = 6.8 g/cm^3
Let the mass of iron piece be 'm'. Then,
We know that,
Density = Mass / Volume = m/V
By applying values, we get,
=> 6.8 g/cm^3 = m / 40 cm^3
=> m = 6.8 × 40
=> m = 272 g
Hence, mass of iron = 272 g
'A piece of Supplementary Counsel' :-
• Density = The density, of a substance is its mass per unit volume. The symbol most often used for density is ρ, although the Latin letter D can also be used. Mathematically, density is defined as mass divided by volume: where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume.
• Calculation of Density = Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume. Density often has units of grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3). Remember, grams is a mass and cubic centimeters is a volume (the same volume as 1 milliliter).
Given :-
- Volume of Iron piece = 40 cm³
- Density of Iron piece = 6.8 g/cm³
To find :-
- mass of iron , m = ?
Formula used :-
- Density = mass / volume
Solution :-
Using formula
Density = mass / volume
mass = density × volume
→ mass , m = 6.8 × 40
→ mass , m = 272 g
Hence, Mass of iron piece is 272 grams .
