Flashcard: Mass, Density, Volume

Front

What is the formula for calculating volume?

Back

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Front

What is the unit of measurement for volume in the metric system?

Back

cm³ (cubic centimeters)

Front

Define mass.

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in grams (g).

Front

What is the formula for density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume

Front

What is the unit of measurement for density in the metric system?

Back

g/cm³ (grams per cubic centimeter)

Front

If an object has a mass of 100 g and a volume of 50 cm³, what is its density?

Back

Density = 100 g / 50 cm³ = 2 g/cm³

Front

How do you convert grams to kilograms?

Back

Divide the number of grams by 1000.

Front

What is the volume of a cube with a side length of 3 cm?

Back

Volume = 3 cm × 3 cm × 3 cm = 27 cm³

Front

If a substance has a density of 1 g/cm³, what does this imply about its mass and volume?

Back

The mass in grams is equal to the volume in cm³.

Front

What is the relationship between mass, density, and volume?

Back

Mass is directly proportional to density and volume; increasing volume increases mass if density remains constant.
