Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the given values

We are given the density and volume of the powdered sugar:

  • Density (\(\rho\)) = 0.52 grams per cubic centimeter
  • Volume (\(V\)) = 250 cubic centimeters
Step 2: Use the formula for mass

The formula to calculate mass (\(m\)) is: \[ m = \rho \times V \]

Step 3: Substitute the given values into the formula

Substitute \(\rho = 0.52 \, \text{g/cm}^3\) and \(V = 250 \, \text{cm}^3\) into the formula: \[ m = 0.52 \, \text{g/cm}^3 \times 250 \, \text{cm}^3 \]

Step 4: Perform the multiplication

\[ m = 0.52 \times 250 = 130 \, \text{grams} \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{130 \, \text{grams}}\)
