Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 9

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Let mass of iron }=\mathrm{wg} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{w}}{150 \times 10^3} \times 10^6=12 \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{w}=150 \times 12 \times 10^{-3}=1.8 \mathrm{gm} \end{aligned}\) Let mass of…
