A solid air freshener loses mass and volume over time due to evaporation of the fragrant oils or other volatile components that give it its scent. As these components evaporate into the air, the weight and size of the air freshener decrease.
If this rectangular solid is actually in your possession, then you would measure it and calculate the volume, after which you can derive the density by dividing the mass by the volume. If it is not in your possession, then you are clearly being asked to call upon your psychic powers to solve this problem.
To measure the volume of a solid, you would place the solid in a graduated cylinder or beaker (depending on the size of the solid) with a recorded volume of water. After putting the solid in the water, the water will rise, and subtracting the original volume from the final volume will give you the volume of the solid. Ex. Put a block in a graduated cylinder with 50 mL of water and the level rises to 75 mL. Volume=75-50=25 mL To determine the mass of the solid, you would simply mass it on a balance or scale.
To find the volume of a solid, use the formula: Volume = Mass / Density. Plug in the given values to calculate the volume: Volume = 371 g / 5.3 g/cm^3 = 70 cm^3.
A solid has air gaps. Density is mass per volume. Volume of the known mass of solid is determined by displacement of liquid in which the solid is insoluble. In case of liquid, the mass of known volume of liquid is determined.
matter is what has volume and mass also occupies space. It exists in three state namely: solid- has mass, volume and shape, Liquid- has volume and mass, and Gas- has volume and mass too.
Air fresheners contain compounds with low volatility.
When you open a solid air freshner, the solid slowly loses mass and volume due to sublimation. Sublimation occurs when the surface particles of a solid gain enough energy to form a gas. Since solids are closely packed together and have a definite shape and volume and gases have no definite volume, when the solid air freshner sublimates, it causes the solid to lose shape and volume to turn into gas.
Evaporation. Air fresheners contain volatile compounds that evaporate relatively easily. The effect is comparable to what happens when you put out a saucer of water; the water evaporates (because the air isn't saturated with water vapour), it doesn't have to BOIL.
Density = Mass/Volume so Volume = Mass/Density. Provided the object is solid.
Matter that has a definite volume and a definite mass is... a SOLID. So any solid will be a correct answer to your question.
You measure its mass and volume and then density = mass/volume.
Density = Mass/Volume so Volume = Mass/Density Volume = 24.836/1.92 = 12.94 cc
mass/volume
A Solid is matter that has definite volume and mass
mass over volume
All states of matter - solid, liquid, and gas - have mass and volume. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while volume is the amount of space it occupies. Plasma, the fourth state of matter, also has mass and volume.
"The volume of 50 mg solid which occupies a volume of 0.00064 litres?" it is not a question.
