A piece of magnesium metal has a mass of 56.5 g and a volume of 32.5 cm³.

What is the density of the magnesium?

Answer :

Final answer:

The density of the magnesium metal is 1.738 g/cm³.

Explanation:

To calculate the density of an object, you need to divide its mass by its volume. In this case, the mass of the magnesium is 56.5 g and its volume is 32.5 cm³. So the density of magnesium can be calculated as:

Density = Mass/Volume

Density = 56.5 g / 32.5 cm³

Density = 1.738 g/cm³

Therefore, the density of the magnesium metal is 1.738 g/cm³.
