Density
What is It?
Derived unit which shows the mass per unit of volume
More dense materials are “heavier” than less dense materials
Density compares mass without variable of size
MassDensity
Volume
Units of Density
For liquid or gas - g/ml
For solid – g/cm3
Every Material Has A Unique Density
Lead 11.35 g/cm3
Granite 2.70 g/cm3
Water 1.00 g/ml
Ice .91 g/cm3
Cork .24 g/cm3
Sink or Float
Substances less dense than water float
More dense than water they sink
Example 1
What is the density of alum with a volume of 4.00 cm3 and a mass of 10.8 g?
Example 2
A piece of quartz has a volume of 30. cm3. The density is 2.65 g/ cm3, what is the mass?
Example 3
Bone has a density of 1.85 g/ cm3, what is the volume of a 55g bone?
