Introduction to Matter
Density: The amount of mass per volume of an object.
D = m / V
D= Density
m= mass
V= Volume

Introduction to Matter
Calculating Density
A small block of wood floats on water. It has a mass of
200 g and a volume of 250 cm3. What is the density of the wood?
Perform the calculation.
Density = Mass/Volume = 200 g/250 cm3
= 0.80 g/cm3
