Question

The mass and volume of an unknown pure metal block are measured in laboratory. Mass is 100 g, and volume is 11.2 cm3. What is this pure metal block made of

Answer 1

Answer:

density ρ = mass / volume

ρ = 100 g / 11.2 cm^3 = 8.93 g/cm^3

Probably copper because a value given for Cu is 8.89 g/cm^3
