Respuesta :

1. 0.2 g/mL

The relationship between mass, density and volume of an object is

[tex]d=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]

where

d is the density

m is the mass

V is the volume

For the object in this problem, we have

m = 10 g

V = 50 mL

Substituting into the equation,

[tex]d=\frac{10}{50}=0.2 g/mL[/tex]

2. 10 mL

In this exercise we know:

- The density of the object: d = 2 g/mL

- The mass of the object: m = 20 g

Therefore, we can re-arrange the previous equation to find the volume:

[tex]V=\frac{m}{d}[/tex]

And substituting values into the equation, we find

[tex]V=\frac{20}{2}=10 mL[/tex]
