Answer to Problem 1.74P

g/CC unit measures density of any object.

Explanation of Solution

The density of a substance is equal to the ratio of its mass and volume. In general, the density of a substance is mass per unit volume.

density (gcm3) = mass (g)volume (cm3 or mass (g)volume (mL) 

g/CC unit measures density of any object which is the ratio of mass and volume.
