the density of iron is 7.86 g/cm3. you are given an unknown metal that has a mass of 214.6 g. what would the volume of the sample be if it were iron?

Respuesta :

volume = density * mass

7.86 * 214.6

= 1686.756


Answer:

[tex]27.3cm^{3}[/tex]

Explanation:

The density can be expressed as:

[tex]density=\frac{mass}{Volume}[/tex]

Solving for Volume:

[tex]Volume=\frac{mass}{density}[/tex]

Assuming that the unknown metal is iron, and replacing values:

[tex]Volume=\frac{214.6g}{7.86\frac{g}{cm^{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]Volume=27.3cm^{3}[/tex]
