Mass of the steel is [tex]1004.4 g[/tex]

  • density of a substance can be regarded as the ratio of the mass of that substance to that of it's volume.

  • Mass of substance can be regarded as the quantitative measure of inertia, it can be simply explained as a fundamental property of all matter

We can express this mathematically as ;

  • [tex]Density= \frac{ mass }{volume }[/tex]

Given :

Density of this steel= 8.1g/cm3

[tex]Mass= 124 cm^{3}[/tex]

If we make Mass subject of formula,

[tex]Mass= ( density *volume)[/tex]

Then let us substitute the values into the expression

[tex]Mass= (124*8.1)[/tex]

[tex]= 1004.4 g[/tex]

Therefore, mass of the steel is [tex]1004.4 g[/tex]
