stone is 90g, water is 50 centimeter cube and water and pebble is 84 centimeter cube, what is the density of stone?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

2.65g/cm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of stone  = 90g

Volume of water = 50cm³

Volume of water and pebble  = 84cm³

Unknown:

Density of stone = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per volume of a substance;

        Density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

To find the density of the stone, we know the mass of the stone already. Then let us find the volume of the stone;

 Volume of stone  = Volume of water and Pebble - Volume of water

                               =   84cm³ - 50cm³

                               = 34cm³

So, density of stone  = [tex]\frac{90}{34}[/tex]  = 2.65g/cm³
