Answer:
225.70 grams is the mass of a block of osmium.
Explanation:
Density of the substance is defined as mass of the substance present in a unit volume of the substance.
[tex]Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]
Density of the metal = [tex]\rho =22.57 g/cm^3[/tex]
Mass of the block of an osmium metal = M
Volume of the block of an osmium metal = V
Block is in the shape of cuboid with dimension given as:
Length of the block = l = 1.0-0 cm
Breadth of the block = b = 4.00 cm
Height of the block = h = 2.50 cm
Volume of the block = [tex]V = l\times b\times h[/tex]
[tex]\rho =\frac{M}{V}=\frac{M}{ l\times b\times h}[/tex]
[tex]M = \rho\times l\times b\times h[/tex]
[tex]M=22.57 g/cm^3\times 1.00cm\times 4.00cm\times 2.50 cm[/tex]
[tex]M = 225.70 g[/tex]
225.70 grams is the mass of a block of osmium.
