The mass and volume of a body are 4.237 g and `2.5cm^(3)` respectively. The density of the material of the body in correct significant figures is

Options

A. `1.6048 g cm^(-3)`
B. `1.69 g cm^(-3)`
C. `1.7 g cm^(-3)`
D. `1.695 g cm^(-3)`

Answer

C

Explanation

In this question, density should be reported to two significant figures.
Density `= (4.237g)/(2.5 cm^3)= 1.6948`
As rounding off the number, we get density = 17
