The mass of 1 cubic meter of a substance is 500 kilograms under certain conditions. What is the volume, in cubic centimeters, of 1 gram of this substance under these conditions? (1 kilogram = 1,000 grams and 1 cubic meter = 1,000,000 cubic centimeters)
Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) 0.8
B) 1.25
C) 2.0
D) 2.5
E) 80.0
Density is mass divided by volume. So density of the given substance will be mass/volume=500kg/1m^3=800 kg/m^3 or 1g/1.5cm^3=0.5 g/cm^3.   Next, ask yourself if 500,000 g is equivalent to 1,000,000 cubic centimeters then 1 g is equivalent to how many cubic centimeters? --&gt; 1 g - 1,000,000/500,000 = 10/5=
