Question

Silver has a density of 9.32 g/cm cubed. find the length of one side of a 184 g silver cube

Answer 1

Answer: 2.70 cm

Given:

Density, $d=9.32 g/cm^{3}$

Mass, m=184 g

Formula Used:

Volume, V = density/mass

$=\frac{184g}{9.32g/cm^{3}}\\ \Rightarrow V=19.7 cm^{3} \\ volume of cube = a^{3}$ where a is the side of the cube

$a=19.7cm^{3} \\ \Rightarrow a=(19.7)^{(1/3)}\\ \Rightarrow a=2.70 cm$

hence, the length of one side of silver cube is 2.70 cm
