Answer:
The given sample is aluminum.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of unknown sample = 54 g
Volume of given sample = 20cm³
Is sample is Al = ?
Solution:
In order to solve this problem we must know the density of Al from literature.
density of Al = 2.7 g/cm³
Now we will calculate the density of given unknown sample.
d = m/v
d = 54 g/ 20cm³
d = 2.7 g/cm³
Thus given sample is aluminum.
