Please help I am 11 and lost.y question is a piece of tungsten has a volume of 5.2cubic centimeters and and mass of 100 grams. What is the density of tungsten? I am in sped class don't understand how to solve it.
mass = volume x density
mass = 100 grams in the problem.
volume = 5.2 cc in the problem.
Substitute into the formula above.
100 = 5.2 x density
density = 100/5.2 = ??
...and don't forget the units
density = 100 g/5.2 cc =
I can help you with that! To find the density of an object, you need to divide its mass by its volume. The formula for density is:
Density = Mass / Volume
In your case, the mass of the tungsten is given as 100 grams, and its volume is 5.2 cubic centimeters. Now we can substitute the values into the formula:
Density = 100 grams / 5.2 cubic centimeters
To solve this, simply divide the mass by the volume:
Density ≈ 19.23 grams/cubic centimeter
So, the density of the tungsten is approximately 19.23 grams per cubic centimeter.
