Question

Two blocks of metal havethe same mass. The first block has a volumeof 827 cm^3 and adensity of 4.50 g/cm^3. The second block has a volume of 193 cm^3.What is the density of the second block? Solution given: 1) 4.50 * 827= 3720 2)3720/193=19.3 1. Give an interpretation (not a name) for the number of 3720in this context. 2. Give a interpretation (not a name) for the number 19.3 inthis context. Two blocks of metal havethe same mass. The first block has a volumeof 827 cm^3 and adensity of 4.50 g/cm^3.

Explanation / Answer

I'm not sure what you're asking but the densityof block one times the volume of the block gives you the mass of block #13720 grams.      Since they have thesame mass, this also is the mass of block #2....the mass ofblock #2 divided by tis volume (193 cm3) gives you 19.3g/cm3, the density of block #2. Hope this is what you're looking for!
