Question

formula: density = mass/volume
a piece of lead has a volume of 2 cubic
centimeters and a mass of 22 grams.
what is the density of this piece of lead?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the formula for density

The formula for density is \( density=\frac{mass}{volume} \).

Step2: Substitute the given values into the formula

Given \( mass = 22\ grams \) and \( volume=2\ cubic\ centimeters \).
So, \( density=\frac{22}{2} \).

Step3: Calculate the density

\( \frac{22}{2}=11\ grams/cubic\ centimeter \).

Answer:

\( 11\ grams/cubic\ centimeter \)
