  • Calculate the Mass of Aluminum Foil: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the mass of the aluminum foil:

    1. Calculate the volume:

    * Area: 10.0 cm * 5.0 cm = 50.0 cm²

    * Thickness: 0.0018 cm

    * Volume: 50.0 cm² * 0.0018 cm = 0.09 cm³

    2. Convert volume to cubic meters:

    * 1 cm³ = 1 x 10⁻⁶ m³

    * 0.09 cm³ * (1 x 10⁻⁶ m³/cm³) = 9 x 10⁻⁸ m³

    3. Use the density of aluminum:

    * Density of aluminum: 2700 kg/m³

    4. Calculate the mass:

    * Mass = Density x Volume

    * Mass = 2700 kg/m³ * 9 x 10⁻⁸ m³ = 0.000243 kg

    5. Convert to grams:

    * 0.000243 kg * 1000 g/kg = 0.243 g

    Therefore, the mass of the aluminum foil is approximately 0.243 grams.
