What is Density?

Back

Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. It is calculated using the formula: Density = Mass/Volume.

Front

What are the units of Density?

Back

The common units for density are grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).

Front

How do you calculate the volume of an object?

Back

Volume can be calculated using the formula: Volume = Mass/Density.

Front

What two measurements are used to calculate Density?

Back

Density is calculated using Mass and Volume.

Front

If an object has a mass of 10g and a density of 5g/cm³, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = Mass/Density = 10g / 5g/cm³ = 2cm³.

Front

What is the density of a substance with a mass of 64g and a volume of 8cm³?

Back

Density = Mass/Volume = 64g / 8cm³ = 8g/cm³.

Front

How does temperature affect the density of a substance?

Back

Generally, as temperature increases, the density of a substance decreases because the substance expands.

Front

What is the principle of displacement in measuring volume?

Back

The principle of displacement states that the volume of an object can be found by measuring the rise in water level when the object is submerged.

If a cube has a side length of 3cm, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = side³ = 3cm x 3cm x 3cm = 27cm³.

What is the density of a liquid with a mass of 200g and a volume of 100mL?

Back

Density = Mass/Volume = 200g / 100mL = 2g/mL.
