Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the length of the side of the cube, first calculate its volume using density and mass. The formula for density is Density = Mass/Volume. Rearrange this to find Volume = Mass/Density. Substituting the given values, Volume = 7.65 g / 12.6 g/ml = 0.607 ml. Since the volume of a cube is also given by the formula Volume = side^3, we can find the side length by taking the cube root of the volume. The cube root of 0.607 is approximately 0.847 cm.
