Question

C. The mass of a tin containing 5000cm^3 paint is 7kg . If the mass of the empty tin, including the lid is 0.5 kg. calculate the density of the paint

Answer 1

mass of paint= mass of tin with paint - mass of empty tin and lid

mass of paint = 7kg - 0.5kg = 6.5kg

volume of paint = 5000cm³ or 0.005m³

density = mass / volume

=6.5 / 0.005

= 1300kgm‐³
