Question

The density of nickel is approximately 8.908 g/cm3. What is the mass of 17.45 cm3 of nickel?

Answer 1

The mass is the density x mass, 8.908 x 17.45 = 155.4446 g

Answer 2

Answer : The mass of nickel will be, 155.44 grams.

Explanation :

Density : It is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

Formula used for density :

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

Given :

Density of nickel = $8.908g/cm^3$

Volume of nickel = $17.45cm^3$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the mass of nickel.

$8.908g/cm^3=\frac{Mass}{17.45cm^3}$

$Mass=155.44g$

Therefore, the mass of nickel will be, 155.44 grams.
