This means that every 1 cm\u00b3 of copper weighs 8.89 grams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Calculate the volume in cm\u00b3.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we can substitute the values into the formula to calculate the volume in cubic centimeters:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<br>\\text{Volume} = \\frac{45,000 \\, \\text{g}}{8.89 \\, \\text{g\/cm}^3}<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<br>\\text{Volume} \\approx 5067.6 \\, \\text{cm}^3<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Convert the volume from cm\u00b3 to liters.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>1 liter (L) is equivalent to 1000 cm\u00b3. Therefore, to convert the volume from cubic centimeters to liters, we divide by 1000:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<br>\\text{Volume} = \\frac{5067.6 \\, \\text{cm}^3}{1000} = 5.068 \\, \\text{L}<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Answer:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The volume of the copper brick is approximately <strong>5.068 L<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. In this case, the density of copper is 8.89 g\/cm\u00b3, meaning every cubic centimeter of copper weighs 8.89 grams. By using the formula (\\text{Density} = \\frac{\\text{Mass}}{\\text{Volume}}), we can rearrange it to calculate the volume when mass and density are known. After converting the mass from kilograms to grams, we apply the formula to find the volume in cubic centimeters, and finally convert that to liters since 1 liter is 1000 cm\u00b3. This allows us to determine the volume of the copper brick accurately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If the density of pure copper is 8.89 g\/cm (at 20 \u00b0C), calculate the volume (in L) of a copper brick with a mass of 45 kg The correct answer and explanation is : To calculate the volume of the copper brick, we can use the formula for density: [\\text{Density} = \\frac{\\text{Mass}}{\\text{Volume}}] Rearranging the formula [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-210078","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-exams-certification"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/210078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=210078"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/210078\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=210078"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=210078"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=210078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
