The density of lead is 11.4g/cm3. What volume, in ft3, would be occupied by 10.0 g of lead?

3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Density (D) of lead = 11.4 g/cm³

Mass (m) of lead = 10 g

Volume (V) of lead =.?

Density (D) = mass (m) / Volume (V)

D = m/V

11.4 = 10 / V

Cross multiply

11.4 × V = 10

Divide both side by 11.4

V = 10 / 11.4

V = 0.877 cm³

Finally, we shall convert 0.877 cm³ to ft³. This can be obtained as follow:

1 cm³ = 3.531×10¯⁵ ft³

Therefore,

0.877 cm³ = 0.877 cm³ × 3.531×10¯⁵ ft³ /1 cm³

0.877 cm³ = 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³

Thus, 0.877 cm³ is equivalent to 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Therefore, the volume of the lead in ft³ is 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.
