11A perfect cube of an unknown substance 10.0 cm in
each dimension weighs 1.59 kg. What is the
unknowns density (in g/cm3)?
- 0.159 g/cm3
- 1.59 g/cm3
- 15.9 g/cm3
- 159 g/cm3
- None of the above
- is correct.
12Correct Answer
- 0.159 g/cm3
- 1.59 g/cm3
- 15.9 g/cm3
- 159 g/cm3
- None of the above
- is correct.
Density 1.59 kg/(10.0 cm)3 Density 1.59
kg(1000 g/1 kg)/1000. cm3 Density 1.59 g/cm3
13Which will have the larger volume 25 g of Cu
(8.94 g/cm3) or 25 g of Pb (11.34 g/cm3)?
- 25 g Cu
- 25 g Pb
- They will occupy the same volume.
14Correct Answer
- 25 g Cu
- 25 g Pb
- They will occupy the same volume.
According to the density, 25 g Cu will
occupy 2.80 cm3 while 25 g Pb will occupy only
2.20 cm3.

Zeros that fall both at the end of a number and
after the decimal point are always significant.
17How many significant figures are there in the
following summation
6.220 1.0 125
18Correct Answer
6.220 1.0 125
132.220
In addition and subtraction the result can have
no more decimal places than the measurement with
the fewest number of decimal places.
19How many significant figures are there in the
result of the following multiplication (2.54) ?
(6.2) ? (12.000)
20Correct Answer
(2.54) ? (6.2) ? (12.000) 188.976 190
In multiplication and division the result must be
reported with the same number of significant
figures as the measurement with the fewest
significant figures.
