A student measures the mass of an 8 cm^3 block of brown sugar to be 13g.what is the density of the brown sugar

Answer 1

The density of the brown sugar can be calculated using the formula:

Density = mass / volume

We are given the mass of the brown sugar as 13g. To find the volume, we need to remember that:

Volume = length x width x height

Since the block is a cube, all sides have the same length of 8 cm. Therefore:

Volume = 8 cm x 8 cm x 8 cm = 512 cm^3

Now we can calculate the density:

Density = 13g / 512 cm^3 ≈ 0.025 g/cm^3

So the density of the brown sugar is approximately 0.025 g/cm^3.
