question: Sulfur is a non metallic material that has a density of 2g/cm3. The volume of a sample of sulfur was measured to be 5.0cm3. What is the mass of the sulfur

Answer:

0.01 kg

Explanation:

Density: This can be defined as the ratio of mass of a body and it's volume. The S.I unit of volume is kg/m³.

Therefore,

Density = mass/volume

D = m/V......................................................... Equation 1

making m the subject of the equation

m = D×V ................................... Equation 2

Given: D = 2 g/cm³ = 2000 kg/m³, V = 5.0 cm³ =  0.000005 m³

subtitute into equation 2

m = 2000×0.000005

m = 0.01 kg or 10 g
