The volume of 40 g of solid is 15 cm cube. If the density of water is 1g/cm cube will the solid float or sink? Explain
Answers
Mass of solid= 40g
Volume = 15cm^3
Density of solid = mass/volume
=40/15 = 8/3 = 2.66g/cm^3
2.66 g/cm^3 > 1 g/cm^3
Since the density of solid is greater than that of water it will sink.
_/\_Hello mate__here is your answer--
_______________________
⭐ CONCEPT:-- If the density of an object is more than the density of a liquid, then it sinks in the liquid. On the other hand, if the density of an object is less than the density of a liquid, then it floats on the surface of the liquid.
________________________
Mass of sub. , M= 40 g
Volume of sub., V= 15 cm^3
density of the substance
= M/V
=40/ 15
= 2.66 g/cm^3
The density of the substance is more than the density of water (1 g cm^−3). Hence, the substance will sink in water.
I hope, this will help you.☺
Thank you______❤
