    10. If you are sure that a sample of material is aluminum but have no measuring instruments AND are not
    allowed to handle the sample, how would you determine the sample’s density?

    Considering the handicaps presented in the situation wherein it was already stated that the sample materials
    was aluminum but neither measuring instruments nor handling the sample is allowed, therefore being said, the possible
    ways to determine the density would be analyzing the packing structure of the material which in this case was the
    Aluminum that has a CCP or the closed-cubic packaged. Moreover, in such situation there was an available formula
    which can be utilized to at least determine the material’s “experimental density”, the formula was included below:
    𝒏𝒙𝑴
    𝝆=𝑵
    𝑨 𝒙𝑽

    Wherein…
    n= number of atoms in unit cell
    M= Molar Mass
    NA= Avogadro’s Number (6.022 x 1023)
    V= Volume of the unit cell

    Hence, to allow such computation, it will need some references to gather necessary information, may it be
    through secondary sources, journal and chemistry books will do. In case such information would turn out to be
    seemingly unattainable, the periodic table will be essential, since it already contains the density of the Aluminum and
    all other elements in the unit of g/cm3. Therefore, upon looking into the periodic table the density of the Aluminum
    was 2.70 g/cm3. Ergo, since the situation comprehensively stated that it was already knowledgeable of the material,
    the periodic table would be a greatest reference for such appurtenance.

    the units on the size of the room.)
