Question

select the correct answer. daniel has a sample of pure copper. its mass is 89.6 grams (g), and its volume is 10 cubic centimeters (cm³). whats the density of the sample? a. 0.11 g/cm³ b. 8.96 g/cm³ c. 11.1 g/cm³ d. 896 g/cm³

Explanation:

Step1: Recall density formula

Density $
ho=\frac{m}{V}$, where $m$ is mass and $V$ is volume.

Step2: Substitute values

Given $m = 89.6$ g and $V=10$ $cm^{3}$, then $
ho=\frac{89.6}{10}$ $g/cm^{3}$.

Step3: Calculate result

$
ho = 8.96$ $g/cm^{3}$.

Answer:

B. $8.96$ $g/cm^{3}$
