Calculate the density of a rock that weighs 14.5 kg and has a volume of 141 cm\(^3\). Express your answer in g/cm\(^3\).

Answer :

Answer: 102.83 g/cm³

Explanation:

Density = Mass/ Volume

Mass = 14.5kg

Volume = 141cm³

The answer is to be in g/cm³ so, convert 14.5kg to gram

1000g = 1kg

X = 14.5kg.

Now x = 14,500g

So we have mass as 14,500g

Recall that density = mass/volume, now you can plug your parameters

D = 14,500/141

102.83 g/cm³//
