Chapter 2, Problem 2.113QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The density of the nucleus of ${}_{26}^{56}\text{Fe}$ atoms has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Density:

Density can be defined as property that links mass of an object to its volume. It is a derived quantity and its unit is $\text{g}{\text{ml}}^{\text{-1}}$ for liquids and $\text{g}{\text{cm}}^{\text{-3}}$ for solid.  The density of material can be calculated with the help of following formula,

$\text{Density =}\frac{\text{Mass}\left(\text{g}\right)}{\text{Volume}\left(\text{ml}\text{or}{\text{cm}}^{\text{3}}\right)}$
