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.
