Question

The relative density of silver is 10.8. The density of water is $1000\frac{kg}{m^3}$. The density of silver is:

• A. 10.8 kg/m³
• B. 10.8 ​ kg/m³
• C. 10.8 10 kg/m³
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A

10.8 kg/m³

Relative density is defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to another at a given temperature.
So, $\frac{\text{Density of sivler}}{\text{Desnsity of water}}=10.8\Rightarrow \frac{\text{Density of sivler}}{1000}=10.8$
Thus, the density of silver is $=10.8\times {10}^3\frac{kg}{m^3}$.​
