Question 10
Intensive properties are independent of the amount of substance. Mass, volume, and weight depend on the amount (extensive), while density ($
ho = \frac{m}{V}$) is intensive, so it's independent of the amount.
Step1: Recall density formula
Density ($
ho$) is calculated as mass ($m$) divided by volume ($V$), so $
ho = \frac{m}{V}$.
Step2: Substitute values
Given $m = 300\ \text{g}$ and $V = 75\ \text{cm}^3$, substitute into the formula: $
ho = \frac{300\ \text{g}}{75\ \text{cm}^3}$.
Step3: Calculate
$\frac{300}{75} = 4\ \text{g/cm}^3$? Wait, no, $300\div75 = 4$? Wait, no, 754=300? Wait, 754=300, yes. Wait, but wait, the options: A) 2, B)3, C)4, D)5. Wait, 300/75=4? Wait, no, 754=300, so yes. Wait, but let me check again. 300 divided by 75: 754=300, so $
ho = 4\ \text{g/cm}^3$? Wait, but the option C is 4 g/cm³. Wait, but maybe I made a mistake? Wait, 300/75: 75*4=300, so yes. So the density is 4 g/cm³.
Mass is the amount of matter (constant regardless of location), weight is the force due to gravity ($W = mg$), so weight depends on gravity (location), mass does not. Option A: Weight varies with gravity (e.g., different on Earth vs Moon). Option B: Mass is constant. Option D: Mass is independent of gravity. So option C is correct.
