A solid with dimensions of 3.0 cm X 4.0 cm X 2.0 cm has a mass of 28 g. Will this solid float in
water? (water has a density of 1.00 g/ml)

Answer :

Answer:

no because the density is higher than water at 1.166667

Step-by-step explanation:

No, this solid doesn't float in water because the density is higher than water at 1.166667.

To find solid float in water or not.

What is density?

Density is the measurement of how tightly a material is packed together.

It is given that :

dimensions of solid is 3.0 cm X 4.0 cm X 2.0 cm

The volume in milliliters is equal to the cubic centimeters.

So volume=3.0 cm X 4.0 cm X 2.0 cm

volume=24 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex]

Mass=28 g

Density= 1.00 g/ml

By the formula,

Density=Mass/ volume

1.00 g/ml=28 g/24 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex]

1.00 g/ml<1.166667

density of solid >density of water

So, the solid sink in water because the density is higher than density of  water at 1.166667.
