Chapter 2, Problem 118A
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason needs to be explained for the fact that the known mass of an object cannot help in identifying the material from which the object is made.

Concept introduction:

Mass is the measure of amount of matter present in an object. It is measured in kilograms (kg) or grams (g). It measures the quantity of the matter regardless to the gravitational force applied to it and its location in the universe.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The mass of any object describes only the amount of matter it possesses and gives no understanding about the identity of the compounds or elements. Volume is required to determine the density of the specific object. With the help of density, it will become easy to identify any object.
