What is the volume of a 16.24 g sample of magnesium in cubic centimeters? Show a numerical setup and result for credit.

9.34 cm³

Explanation:

From the question given, we obtained the following data:

Mass of magnesium = 16.24 g

Volume of magnesium =.?

To obtain the volume of the magnesium sample, we simply apply the formula for calculating the density of samples. This is illustrated below:

Mass of magnesium = 16.24 g

Density of magnesium 1.738 g/cm³

Volume of magnesium =.?

Density = mass /volume

1.738 = 16.24/volume

Cross multiply

1.738 × volume = 16.24

Divide both side by 1.738

Volume of magnesium = 16.24/1.738

Volume of magnesium = 9.34 cm³

Therefore, the density of the magnesium sample is 9.34 cm³.

i believe the answer is true.
