Use the mass and volume data to calculate the density of an unknown metal to the nearest hundredth.

Question

Mass of unknown metal = 222.50 g

Volume of unknown metal = 25.00

What is the density of the unknown metal?

0.11
0.89
8.90
5,562.50

Answer 1

To calculate the density, we divide the mass by the volume:

Density = Mass / Volume

Substituting in the given values:

Density = 222.50 g / 25.00 cm^3

Dividing these values:

Density = 8.90 g/cm^3

So, the density of the unknown metal is 8.90 g/cm^3.
