Given:
Volume = 8 cm^3
Mass = 4.49 grams
Determine the Density of the powdered sugar.
The formula for Density:
d = m/v
d = density
m= mass
v = volume
Solution:
Substitute the given values of mass and volume to the formula for density.
d = m/v
d = 4.49 grams / 8cm^3
d =0.561 g/cm^3
Final answer:
d =0.561 g/cm^3
