a person measures the mass of an 8 cm3 block of brown sugar to be 12.9 g. What is the density of the brown sugar.

Respuesta :


From the information we have, this block of brown sugar  has a volume of 8cm3

The mass of the block is 12. 9 grams.

We need to find out the density of the sugar.

For a solid material the formula for calculating density is given as:

Density = mass / volume

Therefore we simply fit in the above given values into this formula, so:

Density = 12.9 / 8

Density = 1.61

Therefore the density of the block of sugar is 1.61g/ml
