Question

what is the density of a box that has a mass of 35g and a volume of 17cm³?
d = mv
d = 35g/17cm³
d = 2.1g/cm³

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the density formula

The formula for density \(D=\frac{M}{V}\), where \(M\) is mass and \(V\) is volume.

Step2: Substitute the given values

Given \(M = 35g\) and \(V=17cm^{3}\), then \(D=\frac{35g}{17cm^{3}}\).

Step3: Calculate the value

\(D=\frac{35}{17}\approx2.06g/cm^{3}\) (rounded to two decimal places).

Answer:

\(D\approx2.1g/cm^{3}\) (the value \(2.06\) is approximated to \(2.1\) as in the options provided in the original problem setup)
