A
8.00 cm^3
B
10.0 cm^3
C
12.5 cm^3
D
8.00 cm^3
Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the formula that relates density (\( \rho \)), mass (\( m \)), and volume (\( V \)):
\[ \rho = \frac{m}{V} \]
Rearrange the formula to solve for volume (\( V \)):
\[ V = \frac{m}{\rho} \]
Identify the given values: mass \( m = 10.0 \) g and density \( \rho = 1.25 \) g/cm\(^3\).
Substitute the known values into the volume formula:
\[ V = \frac{10.0 \text{ g}}{1.25 \text{ g/cm}^3} \]
Perform the division to find the volume in cm\(^3\) (do not calculate the final number here, just set up the expression).
