Question

Cork has a density of 0.240 g/cm´. What volume would 10.0 grams of cork have?

Answer 1

the density will not change. that is, the ratio of mass to volume will be a constant.

i.e., mass / volume = 0.240 grams / cm^3 = 10 grams / x cm^3

Answer 2

\[\rho = \frac{ m }{ V }\]
where rho is the density
m is mass
V is volume
getting the volume you'll have:
\[V = \frac{ m }{ \rho }\]
substituting the values
\[V = \frac{ 10g }{ 0.24g/cm^3 }\]
solve for the volume
