In an experiment to determine the density of sand using a density bottle, the following measurements were recorded.
- Mass of empty density bottle = 20 g
- Mass of density bottle full of water = 70 g
-Mass of density bottle with some sand = 80 g
-Mass of density bottle with the sand filled up with water 90 g
Use the above data to determine density of sand.
0.6667 g/cm3
1500 kg/cm3
666.7 g/m3
1.5 g/cm3
