Answer:
0.92g/mL
Explanation:
Density of a substance is calculated as follows:
Density = mass (m) ÷ volume (V)
According to this question, a rectangular piece of plastic has a width of 4.2 cm, a height of 1.9 cm and a length of 8.8 cm. Using the formula; L × W × H, the volume of the plastic can be calculated
V = L × W × H
V = 8.8 × 4.2 × 1.9
V = 70.2cm³
The mass of the plastic is 64.6g, hence, its density is:
Density = 64.6g ÷ 70.2cm³
Density of the rectangular plastic = 0.92g/cm³ or 0.92g/mL
