Verified Answer :

To approximate the mass of silver, we use the data on density and the volume of the substance. Density is the mass of a substance over the volume it occupies. The given is 10.5 g/cm3 density and a volume of 25 cm3. We multiply the two to get 262.5 grams of silver.

Answer:

The approximate mass of silver is around 263 g

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of silver, V = 25 cm3

Density of silver, D = 10.5 g/cm3

To determine:

Mass of iron, M

Explanation:

Density (D) of a substance is the mass (M) occupied by it in a given volume(V). Mathematically it can be expressed as the ratio of mass by volume

I.e. \(Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}\)

\(Mass = Density*Volume\)

For the given piece of silver:

\(Mass = 10.5 g/cm3 * 25 cm3 = 262.5 g\)
