The mass of a body is 179.84 g and its volume is `32.2cm^3` Express its density with correct number of significant figures.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`5.58g//cm^3`

Here, `M =179.84g, V = 32.2cm^3, rho=?`
`rho = (M)/(V) = (179.84)/(32.2) = 5.5850g//cm^3`
Rounding off to three significant figures,
