The volume of 50 g of a substance is 20 ...

The volume of 50 g of a substance is 20 `cm^(3).` if the density of water is 1 g `cm^(-3)`, will the substance float or sink?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`d = (M)/(V)`
= `(50)/(20)`
= 2.5 g/`cm^(2)`
Density of substance more than the density of water . The substance will sink of water.
