How much space does 1pound of butter occupy if the density of butter is 0.94 grams/cm cubed

Answered by admin @



Taking into account the definition of density, 1 pound of butter occupies 482.54 cm³.

First of all, you have to know that density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space.


In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance. Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

In this case, you know:

  • density= 0.94 \frac{grams}{cm^{3} }
  • mass= 1 pound= 453.592 grams
  • volume= ?

Replacing in the definition of density:

0.94\frac{grams}{cm^{3} } =\frac{453.592 grams}{volume}

Solving:

volume× 0.94 \frac{grams}{cm^{3} }= 453.592 grams

volume =\frac{453.592 grams}{0.94\frac{grams}{cm^{3} }}

volume= 482.54 cm³

Finally, 1 pound of butter occupies 482.54 cm³.
