If there is a block of cheese with a volume of 1200 cm, and a mass of 2 kg (2000 g) what would be its mass-to-volume ratio be in g/cm3?
2000g/1200cm3 Was the answer. I figured it out!
Good for you!
To calculate the mass-to-volume ratio of the block of cheese in g/cm³, we need to divide the mass by the volume.
First, let's convert the volume from cm³ to m³:
1 m³ = 1,000,000 cm³
Since the volume of the block of cheese is 1200 cm³, we have:
1200 cm³ ÷ 1,000,000 cm³/m³ = 0.0012 m³
Next, let's convert the mass from grams to kilograms:
1 kg = 1000 g
Since the mass of the block of cheese is 2000 g, we have:
2000 g ÷ 1000 g/kg = 2 kg
Now, we can calculate the mass-to-volume ratio:
Mass-to-volume ratio = mass (in kg) ÷ volume (in m³)
Mass-to-volume ratio = 2 kg ÷ 0.0012 m³ ≈ 1666.67 g/cm³
Therefore, the mass-to-volume ratio of the block of cheese is approximately 1666.67 g/cm³.
