Question

The mass of 5 litre water is 5 kg find the density in g cm-3

Answer 1

Answer:

1 g/cm-3

Explanation:

Remember this: 1 litre = 1000 $cm^{3}$ and 1 kg = 1000 g

so, Volume = 5 litre = 5*1000 = 5000 $cm^{3}$

and Mass = 5 kg = 5*1000 = 5000 g

Now

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

$Density = \frac{5000 g}{5000 cm^3}$

$Density = 1 \frac{g}{cm^3}$              (5000/5000 = 1)

Hence, Water density = 1 g/cm-3
