Notes SPI 0807.9.7 Density

What is density?

 Density is simply how much matter (mass) you have crammed in a given space (volume)  Density is determined by dividing the mass of the object by the volume of the object Example : If you have two objects that are the same size, but one of the object contains more matter, then you would say that it has greater density than the other object

Notes SPI 0807.9.7 Density Feb 7, 2013

1) Please do not use a calculator…work the math on your paper

Solve The Three Density Problems Shown Below

2) Use this formula

Density=mass divided by volume or D= m/V

1) …density of an object with a mass of 25g a volume of 10cm 3 ? 2) …density of an object with a mass of 45kg a volume of 43m 3 ?

3) …density of an object with a mass of 350g a volume of 95cm 3 ?

Notes SPI 0807.9.7 Density

 Solve the density problems below

Density=mass divided by volume

1) …density of an object with a mass of 25g a volume of 10cm 3 ?

25g ÷ 10cm 3 = 2.5g/cm 3

2) …density of an object with a mass of 45kg a volume of 43m 3 ?

(round up to the nearest hundredth)

45kg ÷ 43m 3 = 1.05kg/m 3

3) …density of an object with a mass of 350g a volume of 95cm 3 ? (round up to the nearest hundredth)

350g ÷ 95cm 3 = 3.68g/cm 3 3
