Question

a rock has a density of 10 g/ml. if the rock has a mass of 24 grams, what is the volume of the rock

Answer 1

To answer this question, mathematically, we know that the volume is given by:

$V=\frac{m}{d}$

Where

• m is the mass of the object

,

• d is the density of the object

Then, we have:

$V=\frac{24g}{10\frac{g}{ml}}\Rightarrow V=\frac{24}{10}ml\cdot\frac{g}{g}\Rightarrow V=2.4ml$

Therefore, the volume of the rock is equal to 2.4ml (option b).
