What mass of lead is required to make a 1 cm cubed fishing sinker?
AnswerThe density of Lead is 11.35kg per cubic metre this means that 100cm X 100cm x 100cm = 1 cubic metre so 1000000 cubic cm makes 1 cubic metre 1 cm cubed of lead = 11.35/1000000 =0.00001135 kg 0.01135 grams of lead in 1 cm cubedEDIT: The density of lead is 11,340kg per cubic metre - not 11.35kgs - Water has a density of 1,000 kgs per cubic metre, lead does not float on water, but it would if a cubic metre of it only had a mass of 11.35kgs!Otherwise the formula used for the calculation above is correct.1cm3 of lead has a mass of 11.340g
Which has the greater density 5 kg silver or 10 kg steel?
Uranium is more dense than lead. The reason that it is more dense is because if we compare a given volume of space that uranium takes up and find its weight, it will be greater than the weight of lead that takes up that same volume of space that the uranium did. The uranium is "more closely packed" as regards material in an individual atom and also "more closely packed" on a macro-atomic scale where the atoms are free to form whatever configurations they wish to make in a solid. Both materials are metals, and they both form metallic crystal structures. These two considerations, the "density of the atom" and the "density of a bunch of atoms grouped together" in a solid determine the density of these materials. Note that this is a situation comparing two metals. If we compared the density of lead to the density of, say, radon, we are comparing the density of a metal to the density of a gas. The gas, radon, doesn't have a chance; it is much less dense. But note that the "atomic density" of radon is higher than that of lead. That is, looking at the number of protons and neutrons in a given atom and the volume of space that atom occupies, radon has more weight per unit of volume (a higher density) than lead - at least on an atomic scale (comparing one atom to another). However, radon is an inert gas, and because of this, atoms of radon will not "pack together" like lead atoms will. The atoms of radon want lots of space between themselves, so they disperse, and on a "large scale" the radon is less dense than the lead. And that's the way we generally look at density - on the large scale (as opposed to just one atom). Density is a ratio of the mass of a material per a unit of volume of that material, so the actual masses of the two metals (the 5 kg of Pb and the 10 kg of U) really don't matter. The key in comparing the density of two materials is to compare identical volumes of the materials, and not two amounts of them by weight. In the case of uranium and lead, the uranium weighs 19.1 grams per cubic centimeter, while lead, which we know is pretty "heavy" stuff, weighs 11.34 grams per cubic centimeter. That makes uranium over half again as dense as lead. Just for fun, the density of liquid mercury is 13.534 grams per cubic centimeter. That means lead will float on liquid mercury.
How dense must an object be to float?
By definition, 1 gram of water will occupy one cubic centimeter. If the object to be floated on water weighs less per cubic centimeter it will float, and if it weighs more it will sink. *For an object to float in a liquid, it must have a lower density than the liquid. For example water has a density of one kilogram per litre and ice has a density of 0.9 kg/L, so ice floats; lead has a density of about 8-9 kg/L, so it will float in mercury (density of somwhere between 15 and 20 kg/L; please correct if you have the data).
Is density the amount of matter per unit of volume?
Density does have a relation to the amount of mass in an object, but there is a difference. Density is Mass divided by Volume, or D=M%V. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance, while density is the amount of matter in a specified amount of a substance. So, the mass of a lump of lead may be 100 grams, but the density of lead is 11.34 grams per cubic centimeter.
What would happen if you pack more mass into a certain volume?
this is the concept of density. the more mass contained in a certain volume, the denser the material (1 cubic cm of lead is denser than 1 cubic cm of water) Density=mass/volume
What is the volume of a 17.6 grams sample of lead?
Divide the number of grams by the density (the density of lead is about 11 grams/cubic centimeter - look it up if you need more precision). If the density is in grams/cubic centimeter, the answer is the volume in cubic centimeters.
Why is 2kg sample of lead denser than 10kg sample of iron?
Density is a weight per unit volume calculation. There could be different alloys or casting methods with subtle differences in density, or temperature variations in expansion and density. However: Every cubic centimeter of lead weighs 11.34 grams. Every cubic centimeter of iron weighs 7.86 grams. Thus, the density of lead (11.34 g/cc) is greater than iron (7.86 g/cc). This is independent of the actual weight and volume of the sample.
How much does centimeter weigh?
A centimeter of what? Air? Lead? Water? If you want to weigh something, first you need to know all three dimensions of the object, since you can only weigh 3-dimensional objects. So, assuming the object is 1cm X 1cm X 1cm, you have a cubic centimeter. Now you need to know the density of the object. Obviously, a cubic centimeter of marshmallow will weigh less than a cubic centimeter of lead: A cubic centimeter of lead weighs 11.34 grams A cubic centimeter of water weighs 1 gram Silicone = 2.3 grams A cubic centimeter of a concentrated mass of neutrons (a former star) = 800,000,000 tons!!!!!
Is Lead the smallest element?
No. Hydrogen is the atom that has the smallest dimensions. The element with the greatest density (mass per volume) is Osmium - about 22,6 grams per cubic centimeter- (Lead has a density of about 11,34 almost exactly half the density of Osmium)
What is the density of lead with a mass of 9.92grams?
The density of lead is 11340 kilograms per cubic meters or 11.34 grams per cubic centimeters.
How many CC in 1000MCG?
The number of cubic centimeters in 1000 milligrams depends on the substance being measured. Water has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, whereas lead has a density of 11.3 grams per cubic centimeter, or 1 gram is .0885 cubic centimeters.
Weight of lead per cubic inch?
The density of lead is 11.34g per cubic centimetre. As there are 16.387 cubic centimetres in one cubic inch, one cubic inch of lead weighs 11.34 X 16.387 or 185.83grams. In ounces this is 6.55 (or just over 6 and a half) ounces.
What is the density of lead?
Answer11.34  grams per centimeter cubed or gpc3
What is the mass of 20ml of lead?
Lead has a density of 11.34 g/cc so 20 ml would have a mass of 226.8 g (1 ml = 1 cc) (1 cc means 1 cubic centimeter)
What metal has the same density as a fishing weight that has a density of 11.25 cubic grams per centimeter?
This question immediately demonstrates how very useful the concept of density can be.The units in the question have been completely corrupted ... there is no such unit asthe "cubic gram", and the "centimeter" can't be the denominator of a density. So ourfirst reaction is to turn and run from this question as fast as we can, never look back,and hope that a supervisor will come along and clean this question out of the category.But then we pause . . . we decide to take the given number, without units, and go seewhether it matches any listed density.It does! We find the density of lead listed as 11.32 gram per cubic centimeter.Surely this is it!The metal is lead, and the fishing weight mentioned is a lead sinker.
How many cubic inches is 4.6 pounds of lead?
Divide 4.6 lbs by the lead density in lbs/cubic inch
What is the volume of 100 kg of lead?
A liter (1000 cubic cm) of lead has a mass of about 11 kg.A liter (1000 cubic cm) of lead has a mass of about 11 kg.A liter (1000 cubic cm) of lead has a mass of about 11 kg.A liter (1000 cubic cm) of lead has a mass of about 11 kg.
